Respite

Glenfield rang yesterday to offer Laura an extra couple of nights this weekend as they've had a cancellation. So that is nice although not sure how happy Laura will be as she has been VERY reluctant to leave the house at the moment. Taking her to the playscheme has been very difficult and getting her out of the car almost impossible. They say she is happy during the day and has participated in swimming, cooking, painting, games and outdoor activities. But I think at the moment she's only really happy in front of the TV.

Jenna from the Diana nurses rang this morning to say that following their panel meeting they are going to offer us respite. It will probably only amount to a few hours a month but the good thing is that they can do the tube feeding which our HomeCare carers can't (at the moment). So they will come to do a whole heap of paperwork very soon.

OK must go and collect Laura from Playscheme now!
