Re: Nightmare of a night
Best of luck. Even though your Dad is desperate to get home make sure you can cope. Hospitals have a tendancy to discharge before patients and their families are ready,
(BTW My Father-in-law made a successful escape attempt from hospital a few years ago. He made it a couple of miles in his PJs and nearly got to our house before the police picked him up this was just after he'd had a knee replacement! His Parkinsons was bad but he was still physically fit and had a good homing instinct ! )

Re: Nightmare of a night
I live at home and when we get an idea of a planned release date (I can't see this before end of August) I will look at becoming a full time carer and what benefits he does claim for that he's entitled too.
Trouble is some he can't claim if he doesn't claim for others.
Luckily my cars paid for and I only have minor out goings ATM.

It might be an idea to contact Citizens Advice now to find out what he is entitled to and get everything ready for his claim.
Hope all goes well for his recovery.

Re: Nightmare of a night
Well, after many nights waiting for the call, my dad told me that tomorrow he is being transferred to a rehabilitation hospital some 45 mins drive away rather than the 10-minute walk we currently have.
so the process of getting him walking, after being bed bound since July 5th has started.

Which do you prefer, your dad waking again or a 10 minute walk?
