Mum, Dad, Alzheimer's and Me channel 4
Connie, that was very lovely, I don't get to post much now because I'm working - have to earn the pennies! lol Steve is still mobile and walking up and down the corridor at the home but he's quiet and distant now whereas 3 weeks ago he was laughing and joking, even though I couldn't understand what he was saying. Apparently because of his rheumatoid arthritis, the home have put a painkilling patch on his arm and since then he's changed and the psychiatrist has had to change a couple of his meds. I'm hoping he will go back to the laughing but who knows.
I wanted to share with you somehtiung someone wrote on my wall on Face Book. The lady works in the office at Steve's home and we always have a chat and she wrote the message underneath which really touched me.
Hi to everyone to say hi to Frinton for me, God I miss that beach!!!!!!
Love Sue x x x
"Sue, Ive just been looking at your wall and I have to say that I do not know or have known anyone to have as much commitment to a loved one. THats whether they are with them all the time or not. Your feelings for the man that you visit are there for all to see and no-one will ever be able to say that you did not care. You are a credit to woman kind and we all love ya. Cx"
