Hi Jill, sorry your dad isn't well. It's horrible watching someone you have known all your life nearing the end of theirs. We were with my dad in October when he left us at 97 and I was very grateful we got there on time. You take care and maybe God give you His peace at this difficult time.

Jill I'm sorry that your dad is poorly but at least you have been able to make the trip to be with him and he will take comfort from the fact you are there telling him how much you love him.

Will be thinking of you. Big hugs to you all. Janexx

hi all

thanks 4 yr good wishes

dad is much better than he was a week ago and is now talking some sense but still has an infection which they need to get to the bottom of b4 he can eb moved anywhere else - he thinks he can go back to his "home' BUT we will have to wait and see - it may eb that he will need 24 hour nursing fare in which case he cannot go back to the care home

(he is v aggressive with the doctors on the ward and will not let them touch him) bt was v p;leased

se to see me and knew me on each occasion

lol jill
