    Update on OH's father

    OH's mum has until today refused to allow the priest to do the last rights... she agreed today but he could not do it (due to something that only catholics understand). So he blessed him and exonerated him of his sins.

    He is rather disorientated, trying to get out of bed but cannot stand up so 2 out of the 3 sons have been present throughout. He really needs to be in a hospice, but she is refusing stating that they are coping... OH did a 40 hour stint and is now in bed. Tensions are high in OH's family.

    I can empathise with this. I will always remember my mother absolutely refused to have a private nurse look after her when she was at home. For a year she was in and out of hospital, when she was out there had to be someone with her so my father nearly lost his job and I was not allowed to go out. She was turning into a very bitter woman which did not help. Instead of nice memories of spending time with her I have memories of her constantly picking arguments and playing on the fact she was ill to get her own way. It would have been so much nicer if she had agreed to a private nurse, not sure if hospices were around 30+ years ago but if they had been that would have been the ideal solution.

    Good morning all
    The weather where I am is horrendous. The rain is coming down in stair rods, the sky is as 'black as your hat' and it doesn't look set to improve any time soon. I am on the east coast so don't venture here for a day out:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    I got absolutely soaked when I went out yesterday and thought that it would have rained itself out but no, I got up this morning and it is still persisting it down :eek:
    Before you assume, learn the facts,
    Before you judge, understand why,
    Before you hurt someone, feel,
    Before you speak, think.
