Glad his eye is better
@Bikerbeth x Mum wouldn't have hers done as had to go to hospital in city rather than our town hospital and she said she didn't want to go there because she didn't like it. She didn't know which of the 4 hospitals it has that she'd go to but she knew she didn't want to go and then after a year when she thought might it was too late as chances of it working deteriorate the longer had it. She has said she'll have other eye done if her partial hole develops into a full one but she'd be in a state and struggle with it with her other eye being not much good and don't know how she'd cope with op as it was hard enough when she had her cataracts done other year so I just hope it doesn't get worse.
@Woo2 I realised just now our delivery slot is in 3 week not a fortnight like I thought. Must have been sleepy when I did it, I ordered mum a birthday cake thinking it was coming day before when in fact its actually a few days after her birthday
Hubby went to local supermarket today for some things to get us through weekend but didn't have much at all that we wanted so we'll have to try again tomorrow or Saturday. Good luck with your shopping ?
Mum was made up and feeling grotty when I went this morning so I was glad I cancelled carer. Care manager rang to let me know got my message and ask how mum was and was very nice about it and said if don't hear from me she'll send carers as normal next week. I hope mums better by then ?I have missed my afternoons off and I don't want mum to go too long without seeing them and not feel as comfy with them.
She's been more confused again today, asking who I am who married to, where I live, talking about dad and her mum and her other houses again. She knew at times she was wrong and wanted to know why she does it and apologised for not knowing who I am bless her. I said my usual about her brain getting tired and she forgets new memories and remembers old ones and when she said it was early in day for it to be tired I told her it was cos she's not well so its harder work to concentrate today.
She kept on asking questions through afternoon and evening when hubby came too. She said before he came that she didn't know him and our Andie wasn't married. She will ask me if I'm her daughter and then talk about Our Andie to me as if its a third person not me. She told me earlier in afternoon when we were knitting and she'd just asked me if I was her daughter, that our Andie doesn't knit. She also said our Andie can't go to see her everyday because she works.
She's mixed up lots of other things too but then she often does. We were watching a tv programme from the 90s today and she asked me if I had seen it and I said I had and used to like it, she told me her mum used to like it too. (she died about 20 year before it was on) She told me her mum used to like my sisters first husband, which she also told me yesterday, sis was only about 5 when nannan died. She talks about her mum and my dad a lot in relation to things they never did. We were watching a place in the sun and ended up talking about holidays and mum said she'd been a place with dad that she hadn't, she'd been with me, hubby and my niece and nephew.
We ended up talking about nits tonight and I said I'd never had them and mum told me neither had Our Andie and ...... (my sis) until sis had kids and one of them caught them at school and they all got them. I said I used to ask you to check my hair because my head itched didn't I mum but it was usually just an excuse to lay on her knee and her comb my hair as I liked it and she said Yes you did and laughed. Then a few minutes later she told same story but it was her who used to ask her mum to do it.
When we were on our way home tonight my mobile rang and when I answered mum said Are you ever going to come and see me Andie! She sounded quite annoyed so I said I've just left you mum I've been today. Oh have you was that you? So I explained that yes I'd been there since this morning Hubby had come for dinner and we'd just left. So she said Oh I am sorry love. I told her it was ok not to worry about it and then said I'd be going again in morning and she seemed happier and we said our love you lots and night nights.
I've found today really tiring and had a headache for quite a lot of it, mum did ask me this afternoon if I was mad at her cos I was quiet so I told her no I just had bit of a headache and tried to make more of an effort to chat to her and not let it show and I think I did ok as she didn't ask anything like that again.
