My Mum is home now. Yesterday Syd said Mum was coming home today and he was going to fetch her at 10:00am. He went off at 9:57am to fetch her, and he came back with her at around 11:00am. Well, they stayed in the car for a few minutes, and then came in around 11:15pm, just when Homes Under the Hammer was starting. I told her the story of when she went into hospital from my point of view, about Syd not being able to remember anything about it, and she said she didn't think it was that bad. I also told her that Syd didn't close the freezer door, the one near the window, properly and it was defrosting, and when I closed it properly again it froze up and stuck the top freezer drawer so I couldn't open it and I had to get my kitchen knife out and hack the ice away so I could open the top drawer! He did it again last night and I had to close the door properly again, but this time it hasn't frozen the drawer shut, so that's good. My Mum has been telling me little stories about the other patients, what they've been getting up to and everything. Apparently Barbara, who was in the bed next to my Mum, has had a stroke, and she swears at the nurses! My Mum said she was always F-ing and blinding! And the lady across from my Mum always wanted to get back in bed when the nurses wanted her to sit in her chair. One day, when the nurse had gone, she got back in bed, covered herself up so she couldn't be seen, and stayed there for the rest of the day! So next time when the nurses wanted her to stay in her chair, the cleaner came and swept under the bed and the nurse told her to keep the bed propped up so that she couldn't get back in! My Mum saw her sitting in the chair looking at the bed trying to work out how to get ontop of it, and she couldn't! My Mum probably won't be coming shopping with me today again because she's not up to all that walking yet, so I'll go on my own again. Hopefully she'll give me plenty of money. She's going to give me a shopping list so there'll be more to get. What is happening in your corner of MyLot land? I hope you are all well. Have a nice day.
