    Is Mr SA drinking enough water?  Dehydration and water infections could be the cause of his confusion.  Hope he improves soon and DD. I imagine she doesn't have much appetite after everything she has had done to her.

    This must be so tough for you. Hopefully both of them will improve over the next few days, the confusion will go and the scan will be good news.

    Perhaps you might get a few minutes peace in the dentist's waiting room?
    hope both patients have a quiet night meaning you have a peaceful night too.

    It sounds as though things are heading in the right direction. :)

    Hope the dentist is okay.
