I just nipped across to see dad on my lunch break, he was sleeping when I went in so I gently rubbed his arm and said Dad. He wakened up he wasnt able to say much but he could shake his head yes or no or puff his cheeks out to indicate how tired he is, I managed to get him to take a sip of water, he asked where my Mum was and explained to him I could come over now on my lunchbreak because he is in a room by himself. His eyes started to roll again so I left him to slepp and have enough energy for when mum goes in this afternoon, he managed to pucker up for a kiss and winked at me when I left. So a bit better today.
