Home Again
Introduction
Good Evening to all you lovely people at the Great WA Family, as always I do hope that you are all keeping both safe and well.
Please do take my very grateful thanks, for all your wonderful comments, prayers and love for your comments regarding to Yvonne's whilst she was in hospital.
Yes, you did read that right, was in hospital as she returned home early on Friday Evening.
It is so good to have her home again, have put her in the dining room ward, lol. They have provided a hospital bed and camode, she is not able to walk very far at the moment so descending two steps one seven inches deep, the other eight inches is not on.
The Last Few Days
This I began to describe in the last paragraph, but to continue from where I left off, we have asked for a hospital tray, so that Yvonne can eat from it, also she can have her drinks on it, at the moment it is rather a difficult job.
The Council have provided care cover four times a day, I have had to ask that the visit at 7am, is moved to at least 8am. Already feeling the pressure, so I need a lie-in!!
Whilst it is great to have her home again, it is very demanding, as I have to do the nedication drinks, as well as regular coffee, in fact Yvonne now prefers the way I make Cappicino, so this is the preferred drink. Not forgetting the three meals a day, OK this is my fault as the carers would do it, but having cooked all three meals a day for us both for over sixteen years, prefer to do it myself.
In fact, whilst she was still in Hospital we sat and made a number of menu plans. This also means that we can eat when we want too, and not when the carer arrives.
The problem that I have had today is that my spine has been troubling me, this does cause a problem when I have to spend more than a few seconds bent over the bed, in fact agony is a better way to describe it (I know always moaning).
Have not been able to get in the garden this week, not enough time and with snow and ice causing a major problem, not too mention spending 4/5 hours driviung to the hospital and visiting Yvonne. Would like to think that I will have time this week, but if today is anything to go by that could be a 'pipe' dream.
As always I will take each day as it comes, and try not to over do it.
I am finding that I am having to put the washing machine at least every other day, the problem that I have is we do not have a lot of space to hang up wet clothes. NO, I do not have a tumble dryer.
Did have five minutes to look at an idea for the business, but that is just an idea at the moment, as it will take time to sort out.
The Next Few Days
The main objective will be too look after Yvonne.
Anything else will be a bonus!!
Conclusion
It is great to have Yvonne home again, but I did not realise just how hard and time consuming it would be seeing to what she needs, as she spends most days in bed at the moment. The first job is to build her strength up.
Be Happy, Healthy and Wealthy.
Please do stay safe.
God Bless,
Stuart
