What a day,
First I had to go sort my pills out and it's always stressful as I never know if they will have them.
Rang around 7 pharmacy's before found one that had them ,
Then we went to boots to pick up my insulin, as I previously said
Came home and B painted under the stairs,
Waiting for a phone call to sort MIL out , They said because of her oxygen she had to come home by ambulance.
Just after 1 SIL2 rang she had a message to say MIL in the discharge lounge but the carer wasn't arriving till late evening instead of 2pm as she was coming from London ,
London of all places why not someone near home,
So I called the coordinator a really lovely lady called Raz ,
I said we have all built our day around this carer coming at two ,
The discharge nurse had rang to say MIL was getting upset ,
Told her this was getting off to a bad start, MIL didn't want this to start with, if she had to wait in the discharge lounge till they knew the carer was there she will kick off big time,
So the coordinator said she would come and stay with MIL till the carer arrived ,
So B and I had to go over to let her in ,
We sprayed the weeds and B strimmer around the lawn just to make it look tidier while we waited,
In the meantime Bs DS2 and our nephew turned up.
Coordinator came and we waited and waited for the hospital to phone ,
MIL rang me really angry she was still there ,
So we had to ring again to get her an ambulance.
By then it was 4.30 the carer rang to say she was at the station so our nephew went to pick her up.
A very nice Black South African called Pamela,
Soon after MIL arrived home , very grumpy ,
We had to leave then so SIL2 stayed till MIL was settled in ,
She and nephew then left but MIL wasn't happy she wanted them to stay ,
Coordinator stayed to make sure carer knew MILs needs and then she would eventually have to leave them too it.
We just know it's not going to work,
We were so stressed I had a headache and we were half way home when B realised he still had his slippers on 😁
Lord knows what tomorrow will bring but DS1 is going , let her deal with it for once.
