Having a bad day

Ambulance for mum at 2am as she collapsed trying to get out of bed sister didn't go with her as dad was dizzy and coughing.   Mum still in cubicles now as can't go to ward til flu swab comes back.

Sis forgot to give her mobile in the panic.

I can only wait.

I have pleurisy it bloody hurts to cough (know it to be this as had it before).

Hope we all see a better day tomorrow.

My thoughts are with you all, as you continue to face awful challenges.

I get support from other groups on this site, for my Dad's anal cancer. He is pretty stable at the moment and lives in the Chelsea Pensioners home, so I know he is having the best care. He has another appointment  at the Royal Marsden next Wednesday, which my daughter and I will attend. It is the first since his treatment ended, so I don't really know what to expect, feeling nervous.

Take care, Anneteresa

He's not far from my place Anneteresa. It's a lovely place am sure he gets good care. Best wishes for his next appointment.

Mum now on oncology ward. Has chest infection should NOT have been sent home on Sunday.  Needs transfusions and antibiotics. 

I can't visit.  She told my sister she can't do this any more.

Sister got to look after Dad now.

I hope I see mum again (and Dad for that matter)

My lovely friend sent me food to my flat as too ill to do much.

Jenny, my heart goes out to you.  I don't know what else to say.  Sending you hugs and love and hand holding.

Jenny. Omg poor you this is dreadful. Can sis get phone to yr mum? Does mum have one of the hospigal tvs with phone attached? My mum did. Can we help? If i can can your private msg me on here? Not sure how it works. Do you need food delivering? X

Thanks lovely maisiemae my friend who I hardly see these days sent me a food delivery.  So kind of her.

If mum improved sis may try that tomorrow.  Mum too ill to do it today. She doesn't like the tvs. She has her funny mobile with her.

Don't want to phone her and wake her have texted. Not sure if phone near her. Sister not as experienced in setting stuff out within reach.

My head pounding this flu bad.

I've updated hospice on mum. We must be doing something wrong if she's getting repeated infections.

Elenium - hows mum doing in the home? X

Thank-you Jenny,

It is a lovely place, the architecture is amazing. I always feel in awe when I visit. (Am great on History, love old buildings and their stories).

Take care, Anneteresa
