We have moved back next door for tonight - Dad's really not well at all.
I hate this.. it feels as though he may have moved into the next stage of his illness.
Thank goodness he is going to the hospice tomorrow. They have arranged for him to see the doctor there again. It's just so lovely to talk to medical staff who will take all the time in the world to LISTEN!
They think the request for a brain scan has somehow gone astray and so are going to consider whether to request one themselves - his illness is so scarily reminiscent of mum's.
Thank goodness my sister is coming tomorrow for a few days.
In other news, it's all gone a bit haywire with the health farm. In between me checking availability and booking the days I wanted, the last room was taken and they can only fit me in the previous day. This means my Travelodge "only £26 but you can't cancel or change booking" booking for the previous night is now totally wasted and that I will miss part of the first day because I will be driving up from the Isle of Wight via Wiltshire to get to the location in leicester. Can't leave before 8 because of getting Dad up and sorted, and the day begins at 11. AAAAAAAGGGGHHHHHHHHH! Nothing ever runs smoothly for me. Good job I'm so incredibly patient ;)
My brother in law suggested I give him the money, go and stay while my sister is here on the Island and he'll give me a massage. Hmmm... I know him and his dubious suggestions too well! ;)
