In the Hospice

I've been in the hospice for a day and am getting used to it.

I've been having plenty of visitors, especially as my parents arrived from Wales yesterday.  Tricky Crow, Dumbledore, Gandalf and Bee were also weekend visitors as well as the omnipresent Notoplip.

The main  purpose of being here is to make me more comfortable with the combination of medicines that are being administered and for that purpose they will be keeping me in for anything up to a week.  This is mainly to work on sickness medicine and night time medicine.

It will be interesting to see the results.

The staff are fantastic and I have also been joined today by my GP.

    I know it must be tough being away from home but at least you have the "safety" of the staff being on hand whilst you and they get to grips with the medication so that you can get back on an even keel and then move forwards.
    Your family and friends sound wonderful and I am sure they are keeping your spirits up.
    I hope you start to feel more comfortable soon.
    Best wishes

  3. You sound very settled and you would not expect anything less of the hospice staff, they are very special people.
    How kind of your GP to visit he/she will be full of the same admiration for you as all your
    "readers".
    You must have been delighted with your parents'
    visit.
    Assuring you and yours of my prayers.
    God Bless

    You don't know me, and I don't know you, other than via the Barc BB on iii, where in any case I have been a lurker rather than a poster for many many months. Let me say simply that your personality, warmth, wisdom and humility shine through on this blog, and that I wish you and your loved ones as much peace and calmness as your illness will allow.

    I hope you will get to watch Wales triumph over Scotland on Saturday. They are due a bounce...

    I am thinking of you both.
    Hang on in there.
    I will be cheering on the Welsh this weekend for once and thinking of previous England v Wales banter we have enjoyed on saturday mornings.
    Love to you all
