Its hard to say what a normal time is . My partner is my carer so he helps me and it doesn't take as long as that for me . Also , take into account you have to get undressed first .
I have baths and she asked how long it took . I asked if that includes getting in and out the bath and she said yes. later I thought, what about having to get undressed first and then drying yourself after. That takes time.

Funny/odd you mention this Rambling Ted. I keep trying to self-assess ready to tackle my own application and noted it takes me about 40 mins to get washed and dressed and deal with morning medication, not including a shower. Does anyone agree with me that is 'more than twice the normal time'? Denby

Hi An ex nurse,
Thanks for your kind post. I'm hoping I test negative tomorrow but think I'm probably still infected. I'm much better than when I first contracted it so no real cause for concern.
Kind regards,
Phrank.

Hi there Kerrygold50,
That's so nice of you to say and thanks for the good wishes. I think I just want to get back to 'normal' asap.

Hi phrank
It would be nice to get back to normal, what ever normal is.
I still have issues caused by covid 15 months on, so the journey can be quite long with no end in sight.
