Her condition has worsened and now she can not walk. As a result, she needs a huge hospital bed and a hoist installed in our home. We can not get it up our staircase because of a stair lift. So, it must go downstairs in the living room.

So basically, our downstairs living room will now be her (our) room. My son will move into our large bedroom and a couch and tele will go into his bedroom. Making that a cinema room/toy room/man cave. So a silver lining in a dark cloud. We are getting a small toilet in our under the stairs storage room where the boxes of toys now are (think Harry Potters room) and the main bathroom is being converted into a handi-accible full wetroom for her.

The local council is paying for most of the adaptations under government grants, NHS is supplying a lot of smaller daily disabled devices to make life easier for her, and the rest is coming from a MS Society fund. She will be MUCH better off, my son gets a HUGE bedroom at 11 for his upcoming teenage years and I get a toy/movie room! All n all, pretty happy out of a Bad situation.

Thought I'd share that with you guys. Always keep my personal life just that, but wanted to share the toy room news. Will get a few more Detolf shelves and will make 4 dioramas. Space/Guardians scene; Spider-Man Daily Bugle scene;a HYDRA setup;and a S.H.I.E.L.D. Super Helicarrier scene. Each little section in the five or six Detolfs will be a mini dio as well.... Asgard shelf, Ultron shelf, X-Men shelf, Doom shelf.... That sort of thing. Very happy for the future of the collection, as up until now they have lived inside bags inside boxes inside a closet.

That's awesome dude. Many prayers for your wife.
