Well it's been a whirlwind of activity today.
We have had the district nurse twice, a nurse from the hospice once, our local emergency care nurse team, called CARATS (don't know what it stands for) + GP on the phone, combined with 11 adults all in a two bedroom OAP bungalow, been a bit of a squeeze, no complaints from dad though, said it felt like being at the Ritz, all he had to do was ask & his children & grandchildren all pampered to his whim.
His last few days will be comfortable if nothing else.
Yes we will keep talking to him & spending time with him individually, I am grateful to all my family for all being their for him.
Syringe pumps on standby, numbers on speed dial, just waiting, he obviously has still got some determination in him yet though.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
