I hope that your mum 's finger isn't giving her any pain when you visit on Monday. Definitely need your waterproofs, and it seems wrong that people have to be '' grateful" for window visits. Hope your mum can cope with these .
I guess there is currently no bike racing. If I remember rightly you were all involved.There is a different one again for U18s.
I've never had a reaction to the flu jab but my dau always is below par for a few days afterwards. One year we didn't juggle it into her race schedule she got flu and then pneumonia so she prefers the few days feeling under par. She does have a weak immune system so might be why.
Oh god I remember these days! I was 4 hours away. The worst day was all the keys going missing, which was when I started to realise the wheels had really fallen off with mum - dad had dementia and was bolshy, and the histrionics over these bloody keys! I found a set by getting everything back from all the neighbours, and got several sets made. I found the original set next day tied up in a charity bag in the knicker drawer. Dad now gone, and mum safely locked up in a lovely care home where no keys are needed (though she always asked if we had the keys when exiting her bedroom). I'm not allowed to see her any more ...I love being a 100 miles away. Left yesterday and the rotary drier was in the garden. This morning on our daily phone call she asked if I had moved it or knew who had as it is no longer there. So will be getting my detective hat on for Tuesday when I go to visit
Yes and then you worry about not having anything to worry aboutOh I was being hopeful then wasn't I thinking that your mum had a blanket as carers way round it with your mum ? Something to keep an eye for your next visit then and maybe have a word about. Hopefully it's a one off and be better next time, it's a worry knowing when to worry x ? ?
I think one of Mum’s favourites is ‘I don’t know anything about that’Dad used to drive me bonkers with his "I don't have any" with whatever it was he needed, or if I got him something "That's not mine, it was here when I got here"
Give me strength!
I am almost certain that 'appropriate dressing' (for the weather, for the situation) is one of the first things that has to be taken care of.
I think people not wearing masks is often not questioned as you never know if someone has a health condition and people don't want to ask.
Yes I had the keys as well. Once the day before I was going on holiday. It was also one of the reasons I thought Mum needed to go to a Care Home as she could have the keys in her hand and not recognise them as keys. The hiding places were indeed wierd and wonderful.Oh god I remember these days! I was 4 hours away.
