The day hospice

Less than one minute read time.

Claudette dressed herself and got ready to go the the hospice for the day, but was too tired to walk to the van which took her, and was pushed into the van and the wheelchair anchored down. This gave me a chance to go out and do some shopping. She returned at 3.30, absolutely exhausted, she said she had done too much, but had really enjoyed it. We'll have to think about her spending a shorter time next week. They also took care of the sores.

She slightly recovered later in the day but had to take 3 doses of morphine overnight, which may have partially been because her fentinol patch needed changing. She slept well, eventually getting up about 8am ond going on her computer. Today is a day of complete rest for her, watching daytime TV, I'm going to stay clear!

    Hi shalfiow,

                       I have read your blogs and am so sorry that the news was broken to you in an insensitive way. However. I am pleased to hear that the continuing care is good and I think your wife is lucky to have such a caring husband  by her side.

                   I hope you get plenty of chances to do things together (however small), where cancer takes a backseat, hopefully for a long time to come.

                    Very best wishes to you both,

                                 Love lizzie xx
