    Hi everyone

    Thank you for your well wishes.:A

    It was confirmed that dad had a mini stroke, they acted very quickly, and at this current time he is in a very confused state, but that is due to dementia, he is only 68 bless, but other than that he have picked up a lot considering.

    He lost his dad (my gramp) a few years ago and he thinks he have just lost him now, and his brother (my uncle), he died in his early 50's a few years ago on New years day, he is asking for him all the time and asking where his miners cash tin is, bless him.

    They are doing wonders and there is enough family rallying round, I will be going down this hospital this evening, will tell you more then, as my other sisters and mum are with him today.;)

    Thats good that you have a lot of family there then Di. I know so many that have had these mini ones (and large ones too!!). They have all recovered well from them. Just takes time. I am sure he will get there.

    I was explaining to my mum, my mate her name also Diane, she was only 40 when she had a massive stroke and still got through it, and she never smoked and was generally in really good health, amazing what they can do these days isn't it?:T;)XX

    Hi Di hunni :A;)
    Thank you.
    My mum had a call to go down the hospital earlier, they said not to worry about the visiting hours, unfortunately they cannot cope with my dad, and have asked if she could sit with him to calm him down, his key worker from his dementia hospital supposed to be sorting things out with the hospital he is in now as well.
    We are trying to space the visiting out with all the family, good job there are lots of us, it worked out too many last night, 12 of us but this is not acceptable really.
    Thank you anyway hunni, I shall keep you posted.;)

    Hope things are getting better for you also Di.:AXXXXXXXX
