Putting on Weight

We had an unplanned visit from the district nurse today - she popped in on the off chance to weigh Pete and he has put on 2lbs which is really good, but I can't remember when he was last weighed but it was definitely before Christmas so, possibly, he should have put on more!!  At least it is going up though so that is a positive.

Pete seems to be having pain in his right leg over the last few days which is making him miserable - no change there then!! 

Today was the day I was due to visit Boots (aaaagh!) to collect Pete's regular prescription.  I had to go early as he was desperate to get his strong painkillers!  Actually it wasn't such a long wait today as they didn't seem so busy - but I still had to wait for it all to be made up and, again, there is one item missing which I have to go and collect tomorrow.  I made the decision last month to change pharmacies so have got the list of his repeats to take to tesco - we will see how they do!  It can't be any worse though!! 

Pete didn't even get out of bed today until 2.30pm as he didn't feel so good (luckily he had just got dressed when the nurse came) but seems a bit better tonight. 

There was no carers meeting last night unfortunately but they are going to add another date on at the end to make up. 

And so we go on.
