    Late late one from me...can't settle even though I'm dog tired.

    I left DM at 8.30pm still in Acute Receiving. At least she's lying down again after three hours in a chair in a corridor. She's being well looked after. Heart rate back up to 140s so the docs are doing a digoxin IV infusion loading. Where she'll be moved to later is a lottery so she's promised to text me. Thanks for asking AOD and TA and everyone else.

    Tonight I will sleep well, if I can get off that is, my mind is racing around like a fairground carousel, most unlike me. DM and doc had the 'what if I get really ill' conversation which involved discussion around DNR. :( Better done than ignored but hugely difficult.

    Whiteguinea - Humax's are so easy and so good. My DM uses hers ' on Freeview and I have two on Freesat. Plug arial into Humax and Humax into TV with HDMI cable and sorted. Set TV to go to HDMI, turn TV on with remote then use the Humax remote for everything else. If my 90 year old mum can use it (after training) then anyone can.
