Hi All,
I haven't posted for a while, but am still reading.
I'm a little bit annoyed tonight...things have become a bit of a mess over the weekend.
Nan needed to go to hospital for an op. Grandad is suffering with VAD. Instead of letting us know, she decided not to "bother" us with it. She told family (daughter) who live over a hundred miles away...telling them to keep it secret...and they did.
Instead of leaving the day release ward after the op she was kept in....and Grandad therefore left alone. Now mum and dad have stayed at the house for 3 nights, and have been up and down to hospital inbetween. Mum couldn't get help from SS because everyone goes home on Fridays....so no help until tomorrow...
I just feel mad. I feel like letting them know how irresponsible they were. There response was - well Nanny told us not to tell you...
They know the situation - common sense to tell my parents would have been a good thing. why would they do that. I expect nan to make these weird decisions because she's exhausted...
Mum and Dad have said Grandad was as good as gold this weekend. They let him decide when to sleep...where to sleep...(in the armchair)...he even mowed the lawn..something he didn't do for months. It's great when they are good. Lets hope for a few more days of that at the very least.
Best wishes to all...thanks for letting me vent...and make your ears red in the process...x x
