3rd January. Vets and Hospitals.
Gosh it's 9pm already, where does the time go? You get back from the hospital, get something to eat, make a couple of phone calls and bingo it's nearly time for the wooden hill. Well the day started gently enough getting some breakfast, hanging out the washing and a quick clean around the loo and bathroom and hey presto it was time to take George to the vets. He seems to be OK now, the medicine has worked so he will be relieved that tomorrow he wont have some nasty stuff dropped down his throat. So after lunch it was time to hit the road again to visit Grandma calling in at Asda to get a few things for her. She seems a lot brighter today due I expect being looked after well and hooked up to a Sodium Chloride drip and with a few other pills to take. She had a chest x-ray last night the result of which is unknown but assumed to be no problem found. More blood has been taken for testing and a Doctor came late this afternoon while I was there to check whether the stoma was clear to the kidneys which meant a catheter being inserted into and along the stoma tube. As there was not much fluid found it was assumed all was clear but when we went to fit a new bag there seemed to be much more fluid than normal when carrying out this operation, so maybe the plastic tube cleared a small obstruction. Who knows? Well we had some snow here today but not enough to cause any problems. Maybe up north but not here in Sussex. Thanks to everyone for their support and best wishes for Grandma it is much appreciated. We need Grandma P back to normal again, well as near normal as possible.
Goodnight ........ GRANDPA B . and . GEORGE .
