Horrible night tonight. Got a call off mum just before 5pm to say my grandma had been taken to hospital as she'd collapsed, 4 hours later we find out it's been a massive stroke, she has a huge brain bleed and the doctors don't expect her to last more than a few more days, during which she's unconsious but she's in some way aware as her pulse goes up when you hold her hand, and she seems to be whimpering and trying to pull the mask off. The doctor said she's already gone downhill since arriving this afternoon, its such a horrible way to go. She's had dementia for a while and its been a big strain on my grandad, but he'll be lost without her. Also my dad is in Scotland atm for a job interview, mum hasn't told him as she sees it as he can't do anything and it'll distract him and he'll just feel like he's let her down by not being there. So we're pretending we were all out all evening at the cinema and will tell him after the interview tomorrow.Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

I'm so sorry to hear about your Grandma Dinah. I think you're probably doing the right thing by keeping your Dad in the dark for now, I hope his interview goes well. I can only hope that she's not too aware of what's happening, just that she gets comfort from you holding her hand and talking to her.
I can't see your picture at work for some reason Nym, but looking forward to seeing it when I go home.Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!Goal Weight 140lb Starting Weight: 160lb Current Weight 145lb0 -
