Thank you every one.
I am having to relearn old skills . One of them is going to have to be not telling dad things like our cordless hoover needing a new battery . He’s just spent an hour trying to remove the old one, it’s still firmly attached lol . The good thing is, it has given him something to do and helped make home feel useful, it drove me nuts though. Oh I do wish I had the patience of a saint .
A Gp came out Friday, sadly not our usual one who is very nice but more importantly knows dad’s situation, sadly he’s ill I assume Corvid as we are in a high incidence area esp for the quicker to catch one.
So doc C tried to do a telephone appointment, a bit difficult when bp, heart rate needs checking as well as the rash on his legs and swollen legs plus a few other things.
So out he had to come . all dressed up in a reddish tunic and trousers which I assume is colour coded to warn other staff.
Dads water pills sorry can’t spell them has been doubled, yet more anti bs and a different cream for his rash
Dads having loads of cat naps, but wakes up anywhere between 2 and 4 am, it’s a good job I am an insomniac lol. Friday night he was up at 4 am with a nice cuppa some biccies and we watched umpteen much repeated westerns on telly., yawn. This morning he woke at 2am
fortunately I managed to persuade him to try to go back to sleep , I put the radio on to our local station so he could listen to that, pretty soon I was gratified to hear soft snores, he woke up at 7
sadly I didn’t get back to sleep .
