My mothers carer.

Well what a busy time it's been, I feel as though I'm in a whirlwind and just want everything to slow down! Uncles funeral was brilliant ( strange description, I know) the sun was shining, the service was lovely and my little talk on uncle went down very well, I just talked about his funny little ways like how he told everyone in the queue his pin code, he had no idea it should be a secret and how he always greeted me…

So mother did the whole drama queen, wailing etc! Spent three hours stroking his hand and whispering in his ear our secret code for I Love You. Mother demands a sandwich from the carer cos she's hungry ( she's got more front…

Not written for ages, life seems to just whizz by and befor you know it a month or so has passed by. Uncle really has been the priority this passed month, having had to put him into emergency respite because it was just too hard keeping him at home with mother.but after about 10 days in there he was admitted to hospital, so he's been in there for over 3 weeks now while they sorted out different problems.
