Pat is still stable but needs an intensive amount of nursing and medical care. They will be coming to the ward in just over a week to give the next Ocreotide injection for the Neuro Endocrine Tumour.
Thoughts are beginning to turn to long term care and I have broached this with him today. Having said this, his heart is failing and it is not longer possible to consider a pacermaker, so anything could happen. One day at a time.
He is comfortable and being visited daily by either myself or my son or daughter.
