The week

What a week! With all the disruptions and a public holiday on Thursday and schools closed on Friday I didn't get must done.

Grandpa George was admitted on Saturday for an emergency blood transfusion, his Hb was 5, its supposed to be around 12 or 13. He was quite a handful in hospital and was restrained for most of the time. Luckily his care giver was there at night to help.

He came home on Monday, but as usual was very confused and very loony. He also battled to walk so he missed the toilet all the time.

He took a bad turn on Tuesday, a bad reaction to the new blood. So from Wednesday he had care givers there day and night. What a help because Shirley and I were taking strain.

He is still not back to his old self. He can hardly walk and is using the wheelchair all the time. Next week we will be trying to get him into a frail care close by.
