    Lyn I'm glad you got a few hours to yourself image Best wishes& hugs sent to you and your family and hope you have months not weeks with your dear Mum. x

    Great news Frank. I wouldn't have even considered doing an MME(mini mental exam) on you if they paid me £550  image I did it once years ago as part of my training it must have changed as we had to reduce from a hundred in units of 7 maths never being my strong point I failed miserably image

    Verdun I'm pleased today was okay with mum, but send you hugs for what you have to face. I empathise so much x

    Verdun, do you feel like you are just on the edge of a steep slope, just about hanging on, and never knowing what will greet you each day?

    Its a very strange feeling, but then I think that my mum must be  feeling much worse.

    Dove, thank you for that link, I have made a note of it.

    Thoughts and prayers with all who are suffering in whatever way.

  • Thank you Lesley, very kind. My friend is slowly getting stronger and feels better than she did. Although still in a lot of pain due to the shingles.  I actually spoke to her today and she sounded more cheerful but rathet tired. She is seeing her stoma nurse Friday. Her daughter is still waiting to see the cardiologist.  She gets very tired too. Hopefully eeverything will be sorted shortly.

  • Thank you RB.

  • Verdun, very best wishes and hugs x

    Hope the home is looking after her now.

  • Verrdun ((hugs))  - we've been summoned to say our farewells to Pa at least three times over the past 4 years (it may be more - I think it is - I've lost count), but although very frail and totally fed up that he can't just go to sleep and not wake up again, still he goes on, all his marbles intact  -  several times now he's asked family members to 'finish him off' - it breaks our hearts image

    Whereas Ma, confused about who I am, who Pa is, where she lives, and why she's not seen her mother lately, seems happy as larry most of the time.image

    Don't think there's any sense can be made of it image
