Hi again (I know, I know, I am really outdoing myself!)
Well the weekend has passed in quite a flash!
I was able to sleep in on Saturday morning (and thus by default was unable to sleep past 09h00!) I spent the morning watching television in bed, followed by the afternoon shopping!!!! Is was a rather nice day (albeit a freezing cold day!) out. Saturday evening Hilary and I came through to see Tony, made him comfortable and then went home for dinner.
Sunday arrived with a phone call from the hospital. Tony was in a bit of a panic (medication induced hallucinations) which meant Hilary was also in quite a state! We sat on her bed with tea, whilst she cried. 10h00 arrived and we were collected by Hilary's good friends and taken out to the german Christmas Market in Birmingham! It was really nice. We had a walk around the market looking at all the Christmas goods with brief breaks at the german sausauge stand, the german chocolates stand, the coffee stand and the roasted chestnut stand (and what would
a break be without testing the wares???). Well after the market, we headed to the Birmingham art museum for a nice pot of tea in the warmth, beauty and glory of the museum. It was rather nice.
We left for home, popping in at the symphony hall and conference centre it was a really good day out. We got home, had tea, and watched television until it was time to go and see tony at the hospital.
The following weeks saw me visit Tony in hospital in the morning (until about 15h00) and then going home, after which, Hilary would go to the hospital for the 18h00-20h00 visiting hours. The weeks go by very slowly, but very quickly (if you get what I mean??)
This last weekend saw the same routine play out - Saturday and Sunday, I get up late and then go to the hospital for night time visiting hours with Hilary. Saturday after the hospital, Hilary and I went out to dinner at a friends place (but were really exhausted when we got back). Sunday seemed to go down without a hitch... until about 23h00 when we got a phone call from the hospital asking Hilary to please come in to help calm Tony down... seems he is still suffering from hallucinations...
So...
Nothing changes.
I wonder what is going to happen this week...
