Right gang.
Have been looking into grants yet again for new boiler.
Def not eligiable as for one DS is 17 & not under 16.
So how the fluck can I pay for it?

be careful who you get to fix it
go with trust worthy people but not big organisations as they are charging well over the costs that you need to pay
find a gas man locally and get them to give you a quote and then barter them down and ask if you can pay in installments

When I got to see Mam tonight, she had her bedcover all in a twisted ball in her hands and looked worried. I went in and asked what she was doing and it was alright I was here now. I put the cover back tiday over her and she said that she was getting out of bed to sit in the chaor by the window as the woman who had been sitting over there all day, had been telling her off, shouting at her, and saying she should get out of bed. I told her that the woman had gone now and went to show her, moving things and sitting in the chair to prove it, and she slowly settled down. He dinner came then, a bowl of mashed potato and baked bean sauce, and after stirring it all together, I put it in front of her for her to feed herself, but all she did was pick up the spoon and hold it over the food in the bowl, staring at the chair in the corner. So I had to feed her and she managed to eat it all, and I got her a large bowl of ice cream and had to feed her that too. She struggled with her cup of tea so I made sure that she had lots of juice to drink

She settled and said that 'a woman', probably one of the carers I would think, had asked her what she was saying and she had told them that she was remembering things that happened in the past, and the woman had said that there was nothing wrong with that - at least that is what I think my Mam said

She was smiling by the time I left and they would be coming round to settle her for the night soon afterwards. My brother said she was fidgety at lunch time too. I did mention it to the nurse and she said she will tell the doctor when she does her rounds tomorrow and keep an eye on her

That's worrying Susan. Do you think someone might have been telling her off in her frail state. I cry when people say anything to me.

oh sweetie that must have been really difficult for you
well done for coping with that as i can imagine it was hard going for you
you obviously love your mam a great deal but tomorrow is another day and she wont remember today
hopefully tomorrow she will be brighter
you are so brave xx
