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!
