Today's been a bit of an emotional roller coaster. I called dad at around 8 to see if he wanted me to see him, he said no because he didn't feel up to it. (He's grumpy when he's having a bad day and just wants to be left alone). He told me he's allowed home but the doctors haven't said anything about Sunday (when he was meant to be home) what does that mean? Lol my dad doesn't listen! So I called the nurses to see what he meant, they said they need to find a food bag that his body will take, the previous ones have made him bloat and very uncomfortable. The nurses told me he's medically fine & he's staying in to find the right food. (Good news!) she then told me he was feeling a bit depressed because he wants to come home and that he told her that he was concerned about me my mum and sister traveling to him because it's central London he didn't want us getting lost. Even though, he knows I know my way to where he is as he's near Chelsea FC football stadium which we're big fans of and I used to go to football with him when I was 14-17 so I know my way, and when my mum goes by train I'd be with her same with my sister so we wouldn't get lost. This broke my heart hearing that he said this.i literally thought he just didn't want visitors but now I'm wondering deep down he did but didn't want to say yes!
