More difficulties
It's been another rather difficult day.
My sister and I were busy this morning trying to arrange care for our aunt when she comes out of hospital. Then our aunt phoned me, sounding rather confused. We visited her late afternoon after calling at her apartment to collect some items, and having an obligatory coffee with her good neighbour, A.
By then, Aunty F was in a very confused, possibly delirious, state. We were disappointed to discover she hadn't had the chest cavity catheter procedure, apparently due to the consultant not being available. She now has to wait until Monday for this to be carried out. So, we then spent over an hour trying to reassure her that the vivid and terrifying events she thought she had had been witnessing, were only bad dreams. She is normally quite sensible and compos mentis, but I think a combination of worry, extreme exhaustion, and sleep deprivation has caused delusions and serious disorientation. We asked for a doctor to see her later, with a view to prescribing some medication to help her sleep better to night. Then we returned to our Mum's house and phoned various of our Aunty's friends to update them.
These berries are on the Tutsan (Shrubby St John's Wort) plant in our Mum's garden. (They follow the yellow flowers).
Oh , and we also sorted out the washing machine filter, so the machine works properly again. That was a very satisfying job as the filter was choked with scale,fluff, and other debris.
