Update

I am expecting news re DB at lunchtime, he was admitted to CDU yesterday. I wish they would get to the bottom of why this is happening, it is so wearing, on pins all the time, especially if I go out , am afraid to open the door in case he is on the floor again. As it happened my cleaner was here yesterday so she was a great help. I must say I was not impressed with the paramedic that came. I will be putting in a complaint about her. I know they are working under strain but good manners cost nothing.

Fine day, towels in the washer. New cooker coming on Thursday, so a busy week especially if they decide to send DB home.

Update:

I was asked by the hospital if I would go in and see the Drs, was not happy, but I decided to go, they insisted that I take someone with me, so rang DD1 and she met me at the hospital.  DB had a very bad episode at lunchtime so he has been transferred to CCU. He was a bit dopy trying to tell me something.....in the end it turned out he wanted me to bring his underclothes home and wash them.

I had an in depth talk with the Drs, they had been told that I had control over everything to do with DB health and money. I told them that in the event of DB having a severe heart attck or stroke, hit was his wish not to be resuscitated, so his notes have been marked. They need to stabilize him and then they are going to fit a pacemaker.

We stayed for a few minutes and then came away, he understands that I cannot go in to see him.....will keep in touch via the nurses. The nurse who was looking after him recognised me from my stay 5 years ago!! She also reconised  DD1 from her visiting me.

So I am home, having driven 56 miles, not knowing on the way in what to expect.

I have made myself a spritzer, heavy on the white wine, light on the lemonade!!
