craftyhunnypie Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I went to see my mum & dad last night, usually do on a Monday. Mum was at work still when I arrived. Let myself in, no sign of dad. Ran upstairs & dad had collapsed on the bedroom floor behind the door. So he was taken by Ambulance to hospital. They think it could be to do with his diabetes, but are also doing lots of tests on him for stroke & other stuff too. I had a horrid day yesterday - with Smartie dying & then dad being taken into hospital. I'm shattered & got to go visit my lady soon - who I am a home help for. At least we can have a nice cup of tea together & a nice chat whilst I'm working away. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 Thanks everyone - he is still waiting to go on a ward. Hoping to visit him later. He thinks that the electrode pads on him for his ECG are to stop him escaping. He thinks some sort of alarm will go off! They are checking his blood sugars every 4 hours. I hope they sort whatever it is soon. They were worried that one pupil of his eyes was bigger than the other. Last night he thought it was Friday - it was horrible to see him like that.

craftyhunnypie Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 It's mums birthday tomorrow too. But we couldn't have got her anything better - she is booked in for pedicure & toes painted - plus an eye treatment & we have ordered her some special beech / yoga shoes. Think we are having a bite to eat somewhere first too. I'm having my hair done Thursday afternoon, so that will be a nice pamper ( hoping for purple bits ). Waiting for mum to ring me. I love to come on here if having a rubbish day - just wish you all lived nearer. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
