    Morning/Night (Delete as applicable!)

    Everyone asleep here, but I'm wide awake now :mad:

    Phone rang about 2am. It was DM's emergency help line to say that she had drunk Whiskey and taken tablets and they had phoned an ambulance :eek:.

    Finally plucked up courage to phone hospital and spoke to a lovely nurse, who had just assessed her. Apparently she is sitting in Casualty in a wheelchair. Alert and OK. She was very reassuring, and told me to go back to bed, and not even think about driving 100 miles up the motorway as DM was fine. DM was just telling her about us coming up for Xmas and how she is looking forward to it:mad:.

    She does this regularly around holiday times. (I think she regards the NHS as a free holiday). I do feel guilty that I am not a good daughter and we don't get on very well together. (I seem to revert to my sulky 15 year old self, rather than a 51 year old grown up in her presence). I feel like the "Wicked Witch of the North West" at the moment. :(

    Sorry.

    I've got similar, been nagging her for weeks to come here for Xmas and she refuses. SO I think she is going to be on her own. No way we can go there as there is no room for us all and the kids would be bored and refuse to go. Been getting all this emotional blackmail . Then fond she has arranged for an old school friend (also widowed) to come over for a few days. When I ask her why she didn't tell me, she says I didn't ask.:mad:
