I'm sorry to hear about your TIA
@Agzy. I've been without a computer for a week and am just catching up.
It`s a pity it`s taken a crisis for the family to rally round but better late than never I suppose and I hope this support will be reliable.
What happened to you does make you think about the possibility of future care during a crisis . It was a warning given to me and I did look at care homes just in case.
Perhaps you could discuss this with Pauline`s sons. If they are not voicing their concerns it doesn't mean they don`t have them.
I'm pleased to hear you have made a full recovery but please take it as a warning.
With regard to the raised step. Social Services fitted a wonderful rubberised step for me. It slotted beneath my own door step and has been perfect.
It is similar to this.
