Mum's consultant says he's satisfied with her UTI progress, but reckons the physio will want to keep her in hospital for another week, to improve her mobility further. Mum made it to the loo down the corridor by herself yesterday, using a zimmer frame, but was so weak by the time she got there that she had to pull the cord for assistance. Still, it's a big improvement on two fronts - she walked a short way by herself, and asked for help when she needed it, something she's not been keen on doing up till now. Sis and a friend started on the changing of Mum's rooms around yesterday, a couple of male friends are going today to help move furniture up and down stairs, so it'll all be ready for Mum when she goes home.

I've had a letter today from the sleep clinic, welcoming me into their programme and asking me to get in touch asap, so they've obviously had my GP's referral through. I have to keep a sleep diary every day for a week first.....well, more of a 'lack of sleep' one!
Off upstairs for a nap now - something I never normally do, but am just so completely exhausted I really need some sleep before I fall down.
All good happenings then. Let's hope that it keeps on in this fashion!
ReplyDeleteEverything still crossed for you. xx

ReplyDeleteGlad you are having some good news.
ReplyDeleteThings looking more hopeful all round - long may that trend continue for you
ReplyDeleteI remember for my MIL's return home the physio advised us to take the legs off the double bed so the base was flat on the floor so she didn't have to climb into bed - she was only small anyway but had shrunk to well under 4'10" by this time. It did the trick though!
ReplyDeleteGlad things are looking up a bit - have a good snooze.
Glad your husband's UTI is easing, bladder infections are such misery and so painful.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear the new car is a success, fingers crossed it remains that way for a good while now!
Good luck with the sleep makeover and continued improvement for your Mum.
sounds like things are on the up. x
