    It must be frustrating 3dogs for you to have to be going over & over the same ground all the time.
    I despair I really do.

    My back is still sore - sitting leaning over the bed talking to Mam and feeding her doesn't help but hey ho, that's life!!!

    When I went down to see Mam about 4.30 pm, I could hear she shouting/groaning as I got to the other end of the corridor. When I got there, she was lying almost flat despite them being told several times that she was to be kept upright because of her asthma and the risk of aspiration/choking. She was frightened and panicking and when she saw me, she grabbed my arms and pulled me into a hug and wouldn't let go until I settled her down saying it was alright as I was there now

    She told me that someone had been at the window and she had been shouting to them that she couldn't get out of bed to open it for them or help them. She settled down after a while and started smiling and laughing again. She ate all her meal, then some ice cream and a cup of tea, and was releaxed nicely. when the nurse came with her liquid paracetamol, preventer inhaler and to put her nebuliser on her, I told her about the flat bed and that Mam had been so distressed and she said that she would 'speak to them about it' (the care staff). When I left she was fine, and getting sleepy :A
    Glad your Mum settled down but:mad: to the staff for not keeping her upright.

    Looks like ive missed everyone again! hello and goodnightx all
    Hey Puds I told my students about your nightclub being firebombed. Is it 'cos they dislike clubs and drinking?
    it sounds to me like you stray off topic during your lessons sw!

    the club was "torched" because a certain family was selling drugs in all of the towns clubs except for the one i worked in. The company that ran the door staff in our club wouldnt let any of them in so the family set fire to the place. (it was empty at the time nobody was hurt)
    The family also claimed that our door staff were selling drugs in our club, but i can honestly say that i never saw any evidence of that happening.

    my dog walking pal has got next week off work and i can be flexible with my working hours, so plans are afoot to walk maybe as much as 70 miles next week, some with the dog and some without. Maybe its a tad too ambitious but if we dont try then we'll never know :-)

    Back from the club! Thought I'd sober up a bit before bed - although I'm in it (using my phone).
    70 miles ted is insane, but best of luck!! You'll do it.

    3dogs: I worry about the care profession, that just isn't good enough.
