The Infirmary

My mum got wheeled into the A&E last night. She was immobile when her carer arrived at tea-time and since the NHS 24 doc thought she might have fallen some time in she went. So after much waiting, testing, waiting, examination, coffee drinking (me, not mum), x-raying, book reading (me again), big sis and me were told that she was basically fine but being kept in overnight for assessment. Not unexpected, we've been there before. So thought she'd be sent home today but not to be. Instead she's been kept in for some more assessment and it was a quick trip to collect some clean socks and stuff before heading back out to the Infirmary. Strangely, there was no dirty washing to bring home. Mmmm, maybe she's layered up.

After all that excitement we had to stop by Bert's for a calming pint on the way home!
