    Zara – thanks for link but the problem is that he is spraying and urinating. Had the spraying problem with him before when we took in my fathers cat but eventually got over that. Jinky did say on FB that she knew of a cat doing this when suffering from dementia icon9.gif Maybe a trip to the vets is on the cards

    Ahh, that is different then. Usually cats will only do their business in private areas where they can cover it, so it may be an underlying condition. It might be worth trying the litter tray . At least get him to stop weeing in the room, then you can deal with the spraying later.

    Just finished sanding the feature wall and the skirting. Have marked it all out and I'll begin painting after lunch.

    Hope everyone's day is going well!

    I dont know any of the parents:confused:although one of the mums offered to take them to and from school before the sch sorted funding though so i might give her a ring if i can dig out her number and see if she is going and if she would mind letting them tag along, thanks for that, didnt even occure to me. Its frustrating because i would prefer to go in my wheelchair but i have no way of getting it down our front steps into the taxi. I can manage very well on my frame i'm just not sure if i should be going. The OT and physio's are coming out this afternoon so i think i'll ask their advice and see what they think. Why wouldnt the school be happy? x

    A taxi firm should be able to help you with the wheelchair, and talk to the school so that they can make the appropriate health & safety/accessibility arrangements (they may need to sort out wheelchair access with a portable ramp, or through another door, and arrange for doors to be fixed open for you. But try the other mum first - as several people have said, if you have any doubts, then you really shouldn't be overdoing things, as it could set you back. (((hugs)))

    Right updated the list now time for a :coffee:

    Just watching about the CRB checks on TV and they are saying that if you help at a nursery more than once a week you will need to be checked. Great idea but if you are a pedophile you would just offer occasionally and get round it wouldn't you. Sorry know it isn't on topic.

  • Whooooohoooo! My wonderful next door neighbour has said she'll take us when she gets back from work, so we are going to catch the last hour of it! Dont have to worry about anything then as she will budle the wheelchair and shove me around! I've offered to pay for her two little ones to see santa. Thanks for the advice girls. I was edging towards not going, as the thought of something happening and not being able to cope alone was getting a bit to much! So as i will effectivly have a carer with me i am sooooo happy now!
    Just in the middle of uploading our 'elf'/snowman antics onto fb :) and i've done some more ironing. Just waiting for the ot and physio now, health visitor never turned up, so damn rude! she didnt even call to let me know! I am falling asleep lol so want them to hurry up so i can get a nap in before we go to the fete! Whats the bet I win a lovely bottle of wine on the adult tombola? Cant drink cus of the meds!!!
