5.8 and an early appointment at the docs for a general review. I'm not overly worried as my health seems ok lately apart from not losing weight. There are worse things in the world so I am grateful for 'where' I am. Hope you all have a great day
I love driving, even in countries that refuse to drive on the correct side of the roadI know a lot of people on the spectrum who won't/can't drive, my wife being one of them, so I value the fact that it is one of the things I love in life. Always up for a road trip
Hope all goes smoothly with the appointment gennepher...I remember our journeys to Holyhead (thankfully on the train) the start of our travel to Dublin...onto the ferry & as sick as a dog on the crossing.
@SaskiaKC if you can get yourself to Gatwick I dont think you will have any problem getting someone to drive you to Blandford. We could do a rota for days out exploring while Bobs and Daisy could show the KC their naughty tricks and splendid rugs!
Thank you, but still problems on the processor front. Don’t think they will be solved. But I did typewrite everything out and asked it to be placed on the files...Morning All. 5.3 today after a very satisfactory supper of moules and monkfish and a good sleep. We had a long walk in the rain and wind yesterday which must have helped too. Seems like its bad weather across the country as here but yet Cornwall is just tickety boo! @gennepher hope all goes well at the hearing clinic. Take care everyone out and about. Stay well, stay safe.
Morning all. 6.2 this morning after a panic realising I hadn’t replaced cat litter when emptying it for bins last night. Poor cat not amused but had waited cross legged, bless her.
@gennepher hope your journey and your cochlear appointment are stress free
@gennepher I hope that your appointment went well and that by now you are safely home and dry.
Poor cat! She was very good!
I have almost never encountered so much rain when driving, flooded roads, flooded fields, almost nil visibility. Yet my friend who lives 10 miles away as the crow flies had no rain at all!?!
There are still technological problems with processor and app to control it, which don’t appear to be able to be resolved any time soon...
Disappointing...
>^..^<
Oh what a shame it’s still not sorted. After such a horrible journey it would have been so nice to have a good outcome. Disappointing seems like a massive understatement.
Morning all. Haven't been on board for some time. Last fbs was 8.1. It's 21/2 weeks since mum broke her hip and we are still visiting hospital c6 hours/ day. Mum has now recovered from her surgery and infection but her legs are permanently bent at the knees so she cannot walk and her Alzheimer's has progressed. She cannot understand where she is, why she is there and why she cannot go home. She is so anxious and needs constant reassurance and I am spoon feeding her with many of her main meals. The hospital have requested an assessment placement for mum to discover what happens next but as yet we haven't heard where or when. It is so hard leaving mum at the end of visiting time as she begs me to take her home. Sadly, unless there is great improvement, it is looking like she won't be able to go back home.We are taking each day as it comes and praying all goes well for mum. The only good thing at the moment is I've lost several lbs in weight due to the long walks to/ from and around the hospital. Every cloud-------. Best wishes to you all
I used to live not far from Blandford so it would be my honour to serve
Just to say a sincere thank you for the supportive comments I have received today. They were really appreciated. Neither my OH or myself have any other siblings, have already lost our other 3 parents and have no family of our own so it is important for mum to see us as much as possible. A cousin of mine has kindly visited mum a few times to give us a much needed break but we still visit mum every day. It makes a big difference to know that others understand and are good enough to take the time to offer support, especially when you have problems of your own to deal with. You are all very kind.
