Apologies, but I am having problems with Keith co-operating and I am being driven totally witless. K got Danny to turn the air bed off a couple of days back - it was 24 hours before I noticed. That did NOT help his btm. The District Nurse was due to come out today anyway. We have Keith on his side but that makes his neck and back very painful. We can't win. Update: D. Nurse been, sorted the areas out and put stickers on the worst areas, and noticed his catheter was leaking - hence the wet bed this morning, which I had put down to fluid seeping from his btm (the reason I was so worried sick) and cause of the apparent worsening of the area. They're coming back this afternoon to change his catheter.
Danny and Emma have been brilliant. How could I manage without them?
More worries from Gabby being told if you want carers, find them yourself - more or less. That was very upsetting and worrying. Anyway, we are working out a paid package of care with Emma, who was a carer in the past (and has been so helpful since being here). A real relief. I am now going to Cors-y-Llyn in search of Marsh Cinquefoil and Dragonflies.
