We had a meet up today, my two sisters, dad and me. Mum has been in care since she seemed to forget how to walk about 8 weeks ago and it wasn't a uti or a chest infection this time. She can't stand up either.
We are lucky that the care home has great staff and want her to stay there. They have, without our knowledge or consent, changed her GP which is fair enough I suppose and they have registered her as a permanent resident which I am really thankful for because dad is procrastinating and thinking she might start walking again. (she definitely won't but we are kind of playing along)
At our get together today my youngest sister had her husband there and as soon as we started talking about mum he kept on and on changing the subject to himself. Youngest sis kept getting up and walking away to do something else. It was impossible. I am really angry with her as this was in her house and the rest of us had travelled a long way to be there. We had all agreed the purpose of the meet up yet it was as if she sabotaged it.
Middle sis and me abandoned the conversation in the end as it was too interrupted.
I am sitting with a glass of wine, have bitten my husband's head off and thought i had better offload here instead because he doesn't deserve it.
