sat in the backgrounding (with good intentions of course) and sending positive vibes 24/7

nice to know you're (all) there

Just got out the shower and the Beacons have rung, Mum's legs have turned purple and they don't know what's going on with her so they've called an ambulance and she's off to A&E. I'm drying off and heading there, probably for the rest of the day.

Oh dear, I hope she gets better soon

Oh, dear, just checked in to see how things are. Sorry to hear that. I will be thinking of you.

Hope the weather is not making things even more difficult.

She was in A&E all day except when they took her for a chest x-ray. One Dr gave her an injection of a drug to make her expel more urine, which, by the time we got back to the Beacons, had worked a treat. I helped her eat her tea & have a cuppa and left her when she fell asleep. Back to visiting at the Beacons today, which is a blessing, I was dreading her being re-admitted to the Diana hosp in Scartho.

We appear to have skipped the snow which was forecast, another thing to be thankful for, and I have in my garden

I've got *and*

So have we!

<- that's me rubbing my hands together ready to take over the foot massage. Give her our love.

Glad to learn Mum is safely back at the Beacons GB! Praying for continued improvement.

What Scorp said

Websailor

Yep hang in there hoping for the best GB!

GB, going slightly I haven't asked how YOU are? We have been too concerned about your Mum.

I'm on autopilot, thanks Webby. I've been walking the distance to Mum & back (about a mile) takes me 20mins each way. Good for me I have a check-up at the heart clinic in March

I am sure you were told to walk, so in a way it is a blessing, and I imagine it might help you sleep too

I lost two stone trekking to see PHM in hospital - sadly I have put it back on again, but since people were all telling me I looked awful perhaps it is just as well

Take care,

Websailor

Wow, I hope I lose some weight! Sleeping is no problem Webby, I've been sleeping well, going to bed early & getting up with the dawn chorus, sometimes early enough to see morning stars

I walked again today, even logging the washing back! The hairdresser visited this morning so I paid for Mum to have a shampoo & set. She looked lovely afterwards and said it felt very nice

Logging? I meant lugging

Logging? Timber!!!!!

Ich binn ein Holzfäller...

Aw thanks, I've now got "I'm a lumberjack" for an earworm

I read in the paper today about a woman who has had "How Much is that Doggy in the Window" going around her head for the last three years.
