Im back and things are starting to sort themselves out.....Hi all we got back from our overseas trip in mid October and i was very busy getting back into our routines when Davids father was put into hospital... of course his mother has dementia and can't be left alone so David had to go and stay in the house with her.. (they live a 3 hour drive away).. then his father had a stroke whilst he was in hospital... and it was touch and go for about a week.. he is still in hospital (albeit a rehab hospital) and now Davids mother is in as well and has been since just after christmas... we are in the process of trying to find an aged care facility that will has vacancies for two high care people... which is no mean feat considering his parents have refused to put their names on a waiting list for the last 5 years...the majority of the good ones have a 6 - 10 years waiting list for couples accommodation.. so we are dealing with tantrums and stubbornness from his parents... because they dont seems to grasp that they cant get what they want... my father in law is a returned serviceman and as such is covered by the Dept of Veteran affairs... but they just pay the bills it doesn't give him any preferential treatment... but he is refusing to acknowledge anything that he doesn't agree with... so its very difficult... So....... as you can see things have been hectic here... add to that ... my computer died and i had to get a new one... i now have a Mac... which for those of you that have made the switch will know... it takes a bit of getting used to... George and HRH are doing well... HRH had her birthday last week... she's not a baby anymore... and we are now changing her over onto adult food... The weather here has been very hot... and keeping cool has been an ongoing process... hopefully everyone and their fur babies are well thats about all from here... i should hopefully be around more now...

Yes, very nice to see you back - was wondering about you only the other day! Sorry to hear about the problems with David's parents. It is very hard and an emotional up and down. I do sympathise. I am glad to hear that George and Princess Harri are both well - photos are called for when you have a moment I think! |

Hi Jo I have just picked up on this - how are your parents-in-law now? I too am a Mac user (been using them since university) - so easy to use once you become famiiar with the interface (much more user-friendly than Windows ). |
