7th January. Home again.

Grandma P is back home and is now tucked up in bed for the night. She had a blood test today and her Potassium levels were normal. Dr Foster saw her this afternoon while Grandpa was visiting and said she could come home, so we packed up her belongings, collected her medications, said our thank yous and goodbyes to the nursing staff and made our way to the car. Then it took a long time to get out of the hospital car park because of road works near the entrance, but once on the road we made good time. Grandpa made some sandwiches for himself and Grandma and we settled to watch Emmerdale on the box, after which Grandma fell asleep so she decided that the best place was bed. Grandpa won't be long in going there himself (whoops spoke to soon, Grandma has just said that the bag was leaking so it is off to fit a new one). OK all done and so am I. Grandpa is in the shop tomorrow, it could be quite busy as it is the Ardingly Antique Fair at the showground just up the road. At least I won't have to go travelling to the hospital in the evening which is a good thing. I will have time to prepare a meal when I get back from the shop. I am sure that Grandma will attempt to Blog tomorrow so she can tell her news in person. Thanks for all your messages of support received by Grandma today. So it's Goodnight from a tired old Grandpa who needs a nightcap. GRANDPA B
