29th Nov. Generally Peed off.
Yes peed off with the district nurse. I telephoned the doctors to see whether the nurse was coming today to do Grandma P's blood test and was told to contact the district nurses where I was told that they had not seen the blood forms yet but would check the collection box later. I phoned the doctors again and they checked for me and found they were at the other surgery, so I rang back the district nurses and left a message telling them where the forms were, I also left a message for the Community Sister to phone me, did she?,answer NO.
But we may be getting somewhere, I rang the Macmillan specialist nurse at the hospital and she has sorted out the nurses and told them that they should send out a nursing sister who is able to assess Grandma P as well as take bloods. Also she is going to talk to Mr Swinn the specialist with a view to seeing Grandma quickly, We will know the result of this later, it could mean getting Grandma to the hospital. More news on next instalment.
As for the rest of the day Grandpa B has done his best to look after Grandma and sort out meals and any other needs. Generally Grandma is still week and can't go far without feeling feint and sick. I am sure we will get to the heart of the problem soon and she will start on the upward climb back to health.
Best Wishes to you all who have sent messages of concern to us.
Goodnight to you all. Grandpa B and Grandma P.
