Well after a fairly good run of being stable, Dad had a blip yesterday, Mum said his blood pressure dropped and he was complaining of being even more tired. The GP has upped his iron dose and he will have tests next week before seeing the specialist. The last time this happened he had a stomach bleed and was hospitalised. Timing as ever impeccable Dad, with Mum's birthday on Monday!
I had hoped that the situation would encourage Dad to come out of his permanent cave but we are no more the wiser as to what he thinks and how he feels, he's not letting us close - Arrrggghhh!!
