Thanks Jennizor, unfortunately the cruise is at the back of my mind at the moment but I think I will need the rest by then. Will definitely meet up with you Michelle

Good morning everyone, hope you are all well. I can’t believe it’s Friday already, this week has passed in a bit of a haze. My mum came out of hospital Weds and got re-admitted into Hosp at tea-time yesterday. Fortunately the Cardiologist rang yesterday afternoon so I was able to discuss my concerns with him about her. She had pain around shoulder blade, very sleepy and not wanting to eat. She had a CT scan last night, there is a small amount of bleeding around her lung that has stopped now and small amount of air. No invasive treatment needed, just keeping her in for a few days. Grandchildren were coming to stay this weekend but it’s impossible for me to manage that too so they will stay sometime soon. Take care everyone Michelle

Good morning everyone, hope you are ok today. It is a dull but fairly mild day here, forecast a bit if rain later. My mum came out of hospital about 9pm last night. We stayed overnight and I will def stay for the next few days. She is a bit fragile but hopefully will get stronger now she is at home, sleeping better and eating better. Michelle

Hope you all have a fantastic time Michelle

Thank you for your kind words Jane, I have spoken to the ward this morning, they might try get physio & occ health involved to help her. I have to ring again after ward round this morning to see where we are at. If she is not coming home we are going to take her wheelie walker in even to they told us not to in case it got stolen as I am sure it would help her. You are right we do not recover as quick as we get older Michelle

Good morning everyone, hope you are ok today. It looks pretty miserable outside’s here, hubby and the dogs got caught out in a rain shower on their morning walk. My mum didn’t come home yesterday, they said she could but she didn’t feel ready she said. I went to see her last night and although the pacemaker is doing its job as it should my mum isn’t mobile by herself. She is not even walking to the toilet by herself yet which is only 20 feet away and she is usually up and active. I am a bit worried about this plus she is hardly eating anything which I am also worried about. She has only had one hot meal since last Thursday, she looks to have lost weight. Hopefully she will be home today. Our tiler arrived at 7.30 today, hopefully the wet room will be finished by the weekend. Michelle

Thank you Graham, hopefully home today, I am going to stay with her for a few days Michelle

Well I went to visit my mum this afternoon and they were just preparing her ready to have her pacemaker fitted. I certainly wasn’t expecting that but very pleased it was been done today. I have just spoken to the ward, she’s just got back onto the ward and she seems fine. I am relieved!!! She should be home tomorrow. Michelle

Fjord you get on your cruise in July, to see the whales would be something very special Michelle

Thank you Avril for your positive words, hopefully she will feel fantastic when it done. They said 24 hours in hospital after it’s fitted Michelle

Thank you so much all my lovely Cruise Critic friends for thinking about my mum Michelle

Good morning everyone, hope you are all ok today, Mum update - she is not on list today but that may change if any cancellations so I am not realistically expecting her to have it done today. More chaos here today, the rest of our furniture is been delivered as I type this now we have floors and doors Michelle

Sorry to hear about your husband, hope you can both get away for a break somewhere Michelle

I agree about the desserts on P & O, they are very disappointing. I usually choose cheeseboard but I can never say it’s really good. Best cheeseboard I had was at a hotel in Torquay a few years ago

Very thoughtful of you to think of my mum Graham. She is doing fine, all wired up to be monitored constantly, pacemaker hopefully tomorrow if not it will be Tuesday Michelle

My hubby was in your wide awake club today. We are starting to decorate the house and he was up decorating at 4.30am. Me, I just slept through it all in fact I am still in bed writing this. Lovely hubby brings me breakfast in bed every day. Hope you get your insurance sorted today Josy, we are with Staysure too and our docs came through so hopefully yours will too. Michelle

That’s the dose my mum has been taking, maybe they will change it now or maybe the pacemaker is the answer Michelle

Mum update - she is having a pacemaker fitted either Monday or Tuesday, she has to stay in hospital until then Michelle

Fingers crossed 🤞 Michelle

Thanks Graham, she has been on Bisoprolol for years and years so this has come right out of the blue. When we left early morning today it was steady at 36/37 which is not great. Her BP was really high too at 205/51 when she was admitted and she takes BP meds Michelle

Good morning everyone, hope you are all well today. I had a stressful day yesterday. My mum was admitted to Hosp yesterday with a heart rate jumping between 25 - 170 within a few seconds. She is on Cardiology ward waiting to see consultant this morning so we should know more when we visit this afternoon. Have a nice day everyone whatever you are doing Michelle

I’ve never had one either, in fact I don’t know what they are Michelle

Sleep is the best medicine, sleep another 6 hours today if you need to. Hope you feel better Michelle

Fingers crossed all is ok for you lincslady Michelle

Nice to hear you are both ok, I was wondering how you were both doing Michelle
