Calmer today

Steve has spent most of today in bed.

He has had MRI scans in the past.

He sees the Dr only about his gout.

There is no follow up with regards to his stroke, his consultant's advice was for him to go away and live the best he can with what he's got.

Obviously there is no help or backup available.

We get days like this , when he just takes his heavy duty pills and sleeps the bad times away . You just keep plodding on as theirs bugger all help out there . We have a fun packed day at the hospital this week hes got a minor surgery first thing then last thing he has to be bloody miles away for a scan . He will be tired nasty and antisocial by then , im so glad that i can only pop him into a wheelchair at the porters office then abandon him
