We started the second DVD of Fellowship of the Ring last night, but we stopped part way through. One part of recovery for Linda is itching from time to time around her face and head which is apparently nerve-based. She can't reach her own face, so I often try to itch for her. Whatever the cause, it was too distracting for her to really get into the movie, so we decided to stop and go to bed. Maybe we'll get a chance to finish it sometime in the next few days.
One thing that she mentioned yesterday was that she was able to completely relax when we were watching the first part. Usually even when she is calm there are some things that don't relax fully, like her index fingers. I don't know if it means much or was just a fluke. I do know that I felt completely "normal" when watching it. You don't really move or talk much during a movie, so sitting next to a woman who doesn't talk or move easily isn't really any different. It was just the two of us doing something we've always done together.
