Ma was pleased to see me and Peter said that she'd been fine all weekend, eating ok, no accidents and only the occasional disturbance overnight. He hadn't managed to get her into the shower though so that was the first thing I did.
Just after she was dressed and sitting in the living room the Vicar arrived to give her Communion and then he and I had a chat whereby he's has seconded me onto a project he is doing for next year (Queen's Jubilee) which will keep me busy for a bit during January typing stuff up for him.
Ma seems very wobbly today. Unsteady on her feet, and very confused. Of course she hasn't eaten anything much since I got back other than a bit of pudding and ice cream about an hour ago. It's now 18:50 and I'm battling to keep her awake until 19:00
Tomorrow is Dementia Cafe, with carols and mince pies and oh ar*e I've just remembered I'd promised to make some mince pies. I'll have to see if I can pass off Morrison's bakery dept ones as my own *looks shifty*

And a pic of my beautiful granddaughter. Just because I can.

ReplyDeleteI agree, she is beautiful! Pssst, sprinkle the mince pies with a bit more icing sugar - and say nothing. ;) xx
ReplyDeleteOhh I can't even look at that picture without smiling.. Welcome Home(props. to Sheryl for the icing sugar idea.. LoL )
ReplyDeleteSo glad you managed to get away Bee. Long distance driving is good as it gives you time to get things sorted.
ReplyDeleteYour granddaughter is gorgeous and I hope you get to see a lot more of her.
I have grandchild #11 on the way. It's due within the next few weeks.
Here's hoping the mince pie duplicity goes undetected. LOL
