So many thanks for your reply desparateofdevon. We get so finely tuned to any little alteration in our PWD condition. No matter how much I try to divert my attention on to something else of course I’m concerned all the time about her welfare.
Any thoughts about what your plans are for Christmas. I’m going to the home Christmas Day and Boxing Day but we’ll see how much she can manage. My family are coming to visit as well so it won’t be all down to me..Bless you for your repeated support. I feel I have real good friends on this forum and wouldn’t have got this far without you.
ah Christmas my husband asked me about that only yesterday.
My reply- “ I am going from Day to Day at the moment. Christmas is a long way away in my mind & decisions can be made closer to the day”
honestly, the care homes put on a lot at Christmas & like small children it can get a little over stimulating!
possible plans-
Visit mum & cook Christmas dinner.
visit Dad on Christmas Day on return journey from cooking Mum dinner!
not possible to have Mum to stay as her needs are so great now!
Daughter working Christmas Day & Boxing Day at local restaurant so it’s not really happening again for me this year!
my Christmas revolves around caring & fitting everyone in.
what is like to do - dog walk on the beach early - smoked salmon bagels & a glass of champagne!
