"A" / Decor/ General

with thanx to Donna for this lovely graphic...

Thank-you again for your lovely comments concerning my son "A". I have been in contact with him by phone twice a day, i've also phoned the nurses reception 6am each morning to see if he was alright.

Monday night he was'nt doing too well. "A" told me the Drs were waiting for the bruising go down and sent him for another cat-scan. I had a tearful day and evening as i was so worried for him and still am. Tuesday, "A" was sent for another cat-scan, later he was given his first meal, he had 2 spoonfuls of soup and could'nt eat any more. Today when i phoned he sounded better than he had been, his voice is back to normal, he had another cat-scan this afternoon. The Dr told him that he is still beeding inside and it looks like its coming from the kidney, he also has damage to his intestines, too what extent we don't know yet and . "A" said he thinks the Dr said something about an opperation tomorrow or Friday and the opperation would be tricky,they also want to get his blood pressure down. "A" was told they had to wait for the swelling to go down so they could see exactly what needs to be done and all they could do is keep an eye on him and help him with meds (morphine) to ease the pain.

"?" has been keeping busy building a wall cupboard in my hallway to hide my electric meter which is coming along nicely (hes still having his up and down moments) and he only needs to get the sliding doors and its all finished. We've been trying to find some paint for the doors upstairs near enough to match the teak doors downstairs, i did'nt think it would be so hard to find the  right colour. We think we would have to get a colour made up (mix n match)

I hav'nt done much this week, just clearing up after "?" and a little vacuuming here and there. I will be glad when all the decorating is ended so i can get back to normal chores.

I hav't heard any more about the faulty washing machine being collected and replaced, i think i will get on to them tomorrow. The leak has been repaired today, it was coming from the pipe from the bath within the outer wall.

"ST" was here today, he came round after his tutor had left. He told us he has got high marks for his school work. He loves to learn and i'm pleased for him that hes got good marks.

I hav'nt got anything more to tell you, so i will leave it here...Best Wishes to one and all.

with thanx to Donna for this beautiful siggy...
