On the Move

Whatto! Earthlings..............

Another day of rain I fear!.............

Rain falling as I woke up.................

Rain falling as I drove to my mothers......................

.......and rain falling from my Fathers eyes when I took him in my arms and gave him one final hug......

It took everything I could muster not to join him..............as he sobbed uncontrollably against my chest.......... It wasn't like him..................... but then again.................he really hasn't been 'himself' recently................

......confused and alone........

.......he tried to explain that he thought we'd all forgotten about him........

.....that he thought he'd been ABANDONED!........

and then I had to explain that I was ABANDONING him tomorrow!.............

Maybe he knew the TRUTH all along??

We tried to reassure him that he is regularly talked about and that we ALL love him......

................and I think that made a difference............

I suppose it does.....................

to know that wherever you are.................... there's always someone...............

...............somewhere....................who loves you...................

....... Due to his recent antics......................

.....the staff had to call the Police when he had his last 'episode'.................

and I can understand their concern ............he put a chair through a window....................

and apparently had to be subdued by two Police officers who sprayed him with CS!......

Not bad for a 76 year old heh?!

Anyway.............he's being moved to a more secure Hospital..........

.........where they specialise in dementia and mental illness...................

Maybe we should all reserve OUR rooms now?

Tallyho!
