A pair of blackbirds have been nesting in the ivy covered fence between me and the neighbours. Now there's little cheeping noises when they visit the nest.

Sister away for a week so she won't full my Dad's head full of BS

Now myself, the OT and the fantastic doctors and nurses can focus on getting him home and building up his confidence as I have already spoke to the doctors about getting a hospital bed for him for when he gets home as this is what my Dad wants and yes I know that it will be hard work but surely if this is what my Dad wants and the hospital agrees then imo it will be worth the hard work and if it does not work out then at least we have tried giving our Dad what he wishes and wants.

Yes, doing the best you can for him is all you can do. I remember with my Nan, she wanted to be at home for the last few months. There was no way I could cope, even with nurses and other help coming in through the day so it was decided it was better for her medical needs to be in a home. I still wonder now if she would have lasted a bit longer had I pushed for her to be at home for a while but I'll never know now.

It's worth the hard work, I stayed with my mother during her last week's but having never done anything like that before we were left entirely to our own devices, there is an excellent support network out there for you to use though and it'll make the time you have together better.

I've decided that I'm going to book a week away and it's just me and hubby.
I'm going to try and get it the week of my 50th.

I did ask my youngest if he wanted to come away with us and the horrified look on his face said it all really.

5 days away with Mum and Dad or the house to himself, I suppose I already knew the answer before asking him lol

Does not look like I will be going away Mark as I've to get hospital test in the next few weeks

Dad getting home on Tuesday now instead of tomorrow as hubby has explained to my Dad and the hospital staff that I can't commit atm due to many reasons but mainly ill health and the stress of the situation is not helping.

Long story short it is now up to my sister to confirm all arrangements, please don't get me wrong I will still help out but it definitely needs to be on a 50/50 basis now.
