See, everyone says they are gorgeous, and they are easily worth the money for the time and love poured into them. Well done. May you sell many many more Xxcoffeecuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14595328767389539577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436306896448667918.post-42887105646483179612009-08-06T22:08:10.913+01:002009-08-06T22:08:10.913+01:00Evening CC

I do it, in the absence of.... As ever... and like most others who find themselves in similar positions.<br /><br />I am not so shocked now...I am angry..really angry at the way people are being treated and a line was crossed, with me, and so no more being polite and then trying to ignore rudeness and disrespect. It will be a case of "What is your problem because I don't want to be having to deal with it".<br /><br />About five minutes back got a text from one of my friends in Derbyshire. They sold 3 of my cards today for a total of £9. That was good going. I tend to undersell myself..I think they are doing the opposite. Fine by me. <br /><br />yep, agree, let us hang on to hope.<br /><br />Love and hugs xThat's not my name!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17064348309163649672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436306896448667918.post-61056315302586280422009-08-06T21:47:45.499+01:002009-08-06T21:47:45.499+01:00Mandy you did the right thing.

As horrid as that place sounds it's going to be a temporary stay and lets hope by the time he leaves he will have adjusted to suitable meds and be in a better frame of mind than when he entered. I truly hope so. <br /><br />I think I would have had a melt down during that visit too. If you said you were going to faint would she still have refused the garden? I'm shocked by that. It's not a prison and tough crap if it's inconvenient. <br /><br />I love your dream. How fantastic if you made it a reality?! A total change might make things feel so much better. Lets hang on to hope, maybe those dreams can become reality somewhere down the line.<br /><br />Take care of yourself sweet lady.<br /><br />Big hugs XXXcoffeecuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14595328767389539577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436306896448667918.post-48779134737580056642009-08-06T21:41:30.126+01:002009-08-06T21:41:30.126+01:00Hi Jill

Sadly, I have not built up immunity..all I can do is try distraction therapy and look to a new life at some point.<br /><br />The Director who is keen for Dad to be moving on, but when the time is right, has said that he will get Dad's Care Co-ordinator to contact me about 'discharge options' and other living environments.<br /><br />To be quite honest...I would rather a meeting between the Director, My MP, Dad's Advocate and myself took place. That being after the Advocate had spoken to Dad..and maybe that would be at a future point when Dad is compus. He is in no position to know what sort of environment he would like to be in at present. He is still riddled with thoughts of suicide.<br /><br />I am really tired of talking to different people..over and over..about the same thing.<br /><br />My view has not changed in that I think he needs a long term 24/7 care environment. Everyone else in the equation seems to be playing politics. Not interested.<br /><br />For tonight..is time to take some sedation...make a hot choccy and veg out in front of the tv.<br /><br />Hope things are going good in your part of the world.<br /><br />MandyThat's not my name!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17064348309163649672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436306896448667918.post-24718871839653717762009-08-06T21:33:24.833+01:002009-08-06T21:33:24.833+01:00Hi Lareve

Am bit less wired up about it now but on phone to Director told him that the next time I get attitude from staff I will challenge it, then and there. He said he hoped it wouldn't get to that as he was going to mail the Director of Acute Care Services.<br /><br />I can see it ending up as a "he said she said scenario" with staff coming the innocent if questioned about it. Don't give a stuff about that...I am not taking any more shit.<br /><br />The good news..such as..is that Dad was eating well enough and was getting better hours sleep.<br /><br />I am seriously looking to a future elsewhere. I love Derbyshire and the friends I have there are amazing. Lots of practicalities to work out .....not least of all being the funding of a move but it is like a seed in my mind and if I feed it enough it might become a reality.<br /><br />Hugs to you too xThat's not my name!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17064348309163649672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436306896448667918.post-61350016598156083102009-08-06T20:33:26.454+01:002009-08-06T20:33:26.454+01:00Hi Mandy
So sorry you are going through all this ...Hi Mandy<br /><br />So sorry you are going through all this now. I was hoping things had improved for you after your trip away. The worry over your dad has been stressful for you for a long time now and this latest situation doesn't help at all. Is there any sign of a better long term place for him with more support but without the nastyness of the acute unit? <br />I hope you are not letting all this get you down too much as your own health is just as important in all this.<br />Will be thinking of you.<br />Take care<br />JillJill Goblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600045447120363448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436306896448667918.post-78099026628442736022009-08-06T14:53:58.536+01:002009-08-06T14:53:58.536+01:00Hi Mandy

Units are horrible, at least your Dad is being monitored and fed etc and he wasn't coping well at home was he? Take care, sending hugs. xLa-revehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02255771946214951488noreply@blogger.com
