Good Morning Friday 13th May 2022

Good morning all.
That sounds sensibleGrandmattie - hospices are geared to pain management and it is better than struggling at home.
Perhaps you can use some of the time -apart from visiting- to get your feet up and recharge your batteries? From my own experience, “running on empty “ helps no one.

Early start for me, Rosie to kennels then D1 is arriving from Birmingham and we are driving to D2’s MIL’s funeral in Epping together . My thoughts have been very much with SIL and his family last night and when I woke up - it’s another hurdle but so important and somehow satisfying to get it right. I hate the word “closure” but until the funeral, there is so much hanging over one. A step on the road perhaps?
Wishing you all a pleasant day and some relief for all with worries or in pain.

Good morning from a bright E Kent.
DH was admitted to Margate hospice for pain control yesterday morning. As usual, they are kindness itself, so although he didn’t want to go, he knows it is for the best.
We are seeing/hearing the oncologist today. Depends how DH feels about the 1 hours journey from one hospital to the other, it will be face to face or by telephone. I hope the latter, although our hearing is not the best…
Got a text from DGD asking to come for the night tonight. That will be wonderful as I tend to feel at a loose end, alone, in the evenings. He knows where I hide the spare key, should I be out still. I am taking him out for a pizza.
Thank you as ever for your many kindnesses and encouragement. They are very precious to me and mine.
I hope everyone manages a ray of metaphorical sunshine ☀️ in their lives today. Carpe diem. ????
