Not the best of days

Survey was done quite quickly and the chap on his way to the next port of call.

After supper Edwin was drying the dishes, I heard a whump and yes he was on the floor, no way could I life him, so I phoned for an ambu;ance. The call handler stayed on the line until they came, almost an hour later. He did open his eyes a couple of times, but did not respond to me. They did the usual checks, his BP was very high, so he was taken into the Queens Medical Centre in Nottingham. Not a hospital I am familiar with at all and is off one of the most notorious roads for accidents.

My neighbour came in and offered to take me in, but I knew he goes to bed early and gets up at 5.30am to get a head start on his job, so I did not go. The ambulance people told me to phoone after a couple of hours, but I left it 3 hours, tried several times, but the phone in A & E was not being picked up. I phones again just after 11pm and spoke to the Dr who was dealing with him, he had a head and chest XRay and both were fine, but his BP was still very high, so he is being kept in. Tried to phone just before 10am no one picked up, so I will try again later. As far as I know he is still in Majors. I will be reliant on my neighbour to take me in once I know whats going on.

I am going round to the coffee morning shortly, they have my mobile number so can get in touch with me if needs be.
