Opening post

Well here goes..... my first attempt at blogging.

I thought this might be a good way for people to find out about Mum and Dad
The current situation is that Dad is back at home alone and still very weak. Mum is still in St Margarets until further notice. Their social worker returns from holiday today and the situation may change.
Mum's diagnosis of Fronto temporal dementia has been a positive step forward and it gives a good idea of what to expect next. Dad is still struggling to come to terms with this news and realising that he may not be in a position to provide the care she needs, given his own health needs.

There's lots of practical stuff that we're trying to resolve also.
Send them and us kind thoughts.

Hi Katy

Well done you little blogger! I spoke to Allan this evening (8 August) and he sounded well. Helen is now home and I understand that the social service package of help kicks in next week.

Great news.

Keep blogging.

Love
Roxy
