Today was Mum's Birthday and also the fourth anniversary of her admittance to hospital after which she never went home.
The day started badly as the home rang my mobile (which caused me to panic) to ask about her flu jab which when she had her last TIA the Home staff had discussed with us whether to give or not. We had not made up our minds but I said yes, give it to her as...well I cannot think of it as a life extension method, rather an avoiding something horrible thing. I would also hate for her to get flu and survive in her current or worse state. I don't know why I just felt that it was wrong to withold this.
Whilst I was glad that she was here and she did enjoy her chocolate birthday cake, I was also sad as this year she really paid no attention to cards or presents. Always in the past she has shown some emotion. This year it was flat.
Luckily I have been busy this afternoon at the boys open night at the school which was good so now is the first time I have had to feel again. Thought I would just write and get it off my chest..now I need my bed.
Love
