Grandma P's Ramblings Through Life

Hello Grandpa B here again. It has been a long old day today. Well we got up with a bit of a struggle to start the day. Grandma did not feel at all well. So after a bit of breakfast we made our way to the hospital for Grandma's eleven o'clock appointment with the doctor (Registrar). He went through the details of the operation and everything seems OK. Grandma explained her problems of unwellness to him and he wondered whether there could be a problem with acid and blood gasses of her system. He then arranged for her to be admitted to the ward for some extra blood tests to try and find out the problem. After bloods being taken and getting her settled in I came home to get her things that she would need while there. When I returned to the hospital later she was hooked up to a drip (Saline) and a driver for a drug to help reduce her Potassium levels. So far they say that her Potassium levels are high and she has a slight urine infection, whether anything else will show up after more blood tests we will discover tomorrow. She had shepherds pie for her supper and was feeling more positive when I left her. Grandpa B then went to Jenny's house for a lovely chicken in sauce with baked potatoes, carrots and broccoli followed by rice pudding and stewed apple,very tasty. Thank you very much Jenny. Grandma is in the right place just now and can be looked after well. Grandpa can now have a nights sleep without having to worry about Grandma. What an exciting day!

Goodnight all. GRANDPA B.
