What a farse

14 Replies

Well it’s all been going on this morning HOW why.

Well I was asleep on sofa dad was where he usually is on he’s chair USALY I sleep with one eye 👁 open given dad’s history.

Am woken at 4 am by the biggest bang and dad’s on floor in pool of tea.

I jump up try to get him up but it’s impossible on my own given he’s feet kept slipping in tea.

So what do I do WELL I start sweating 😓 then duly pass out too.

But remain conscious.

So we are both WELL I won’t say AND then cat 🐈 decided he’s going to take nick out of my dad wile both incapacitated.

Don’t even ask BUT when I recoverd he was flurted right out the door.

I don’t know why I was sweating and nearly passing out BUT dose leave you quite frazzeld delicate.

As to my dad I think he incontinance pads saved him from hip damage AS how I managed to pic him up and throw him back on sofa WELL is anyone’s guess.

Anyway I checked dad over I.e checked was no golf ball sticking out where hips are and give hip press or squash to check for fractures.

Checked leg orientation and colour and all was good ALSO made him move arms like duck 🦆 flying

So think are all both bit shell shocked still recovering from our early morning jollies.

As to me taking any further matizapin well can’t really see that happening wile carer ALSO don’t know how much shock surprises as such one can take.

Hope you have recovered from your latest early morning shock, and your dad of course. Lucky no major damage done. But such a stress when you have to cope alone. Hope the rest of your day is less eventful. Take care

Hi cheers defo was one things most dreaded THEN could not believe how ill i was.

Just had to leave him sat there there wile I lay down OR would of both been in trouble.

Lucky have passed out few times given stressful situations SO no to try sit down n hopefully things will subside.

Sweat 💦 was like river of me JUST hope was nothing really to worry about.

But is frightening worry and don’t really think doctors social workers really understand WELL till you read the post on here.
