Dad came home yesterday from hospital. Hoorayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

It was touch and go for a while but we are happy he is home and more importantly dad is happy to be home. Got a nurse from St. Davids Hospice Foundation coming in the morning to assess his needs etc so all going well hopefully.

Thankyou to all of you who posted support and the many hugs were very gratefully received. Hope you are all doing well or as well as can be and hugs back at you xxxxxxxxxx

What good news for you and your family tanyamarie :) I'll bet you are relieved to have your Dad home and amongst familiar faces, and it's good to hear that your Dad is going to get the support he so obviously needs.

I wish you all well :)

Your dad is so lucky to have such a loving caring daughter as you. Bless you for all you have done and are doing for him. Good news he can at last come home. And fingers crossed that it is at least a long time before he gets another episode:-)

tanyamarie in reply to Gary1969

Hiya hun, I am fine honest. I just think there are so many people worse off than me so when I start to feel grumpy (and I can be!) I just got to remind myself that dad never asked for this, it wasn't caused by anything he did or didn't do and even if it was, so what? It's happened and we got to live with it. Mum and dad looked after me when I was born and have always been there for me every time I needed them (and there have been plenty) and it is the least I can do, is be there for them.

I've done my shift in work, been down to see them and had a good old dinner of bacon eggs and chips waiting for me (thanks mam). Done some housework for them, had a good ole chinwag and just chilled with them for an hour. Nurse was great, has started the ball rolling and they said they don't need me for anything in the morning so Gary, I shall be having a lay in.............................can't wait.

Then I get my kids at 2pm from their dad. let the fun begin, arrrggghhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!
