Mum forgot to take her anti-sickness meds last night and got up this morning feeling really sick. She took one and went back to bed saying she felt awful. She got up again about 11 and felt rough so she took another one. All in all she had 4 today instead of the three she is supposed to have but she did feel better as the day went on and enjoyed her dinner.
I offered to buy her a mobility scooter today as she gets very tired even walking short distances but she won't hear of it. She says she won't have one of those until she really needs it! Hey ho another idea to make her life easier thwarted!
She talked about florida next summer again tonight. I feel awful as I've cancelled it because we discussed it and agreed it was better to do that but she seems to have forgotten. She said tonight she didn't think we would be able to go because of insurance costs and went on to say how much she was looking forward to it. She then suggested we go without insurance. I told her I wouldn't do that and we could go somewhere closer to home when she felt better but didn't say I'd cancelled. I feel awful that I didn't tell her I'd already cancelled but I know how much she wants to go again and because she was poorly when we were there this year we had booked 3 weeks as we love it so much. We normally go with friends but were just going ourselves this time and were planning on just relaxing around the pool, shopping and eating nice meals. I'm very sad just thinking about it I so wanted her to go. That's all for tonight.
