So , it's tomorrow . S looked tired and she was . No appetite , a pain in her side and just waiting . At 15.15 hrs S made the call to the hospital to get her admitting in time tomorrow . It was going to be 12 noon . HIGH NOON !!!!!! How apt ! The usual 'no eating' & 'drink until' instructions were given . Our chauffeur , the BIG R , called to what time his services were needed tomorrow . A set off time was to be 10.30 and get us there in plenty of time . S had a slight appetite in the evening .....grapes , carrot batons and a whole avocado . She eveb managed to small piece of carrot cake . The creme brule wpould have to be for another day . S went to bed and I tidied up downstairs . I found her in bed , just laying there , awake , and obviously thinking . I asked her what about . She replied nothing. I had to make suggestions as to what I thought it might be . Some gallws humour , some laughing , some crying , by both of us and then it was off to sleep .
