Not been a great last couple of days.
Am still raw ( feet ) and my backside is like a brillo pad. Started on my hands now.
I sleep in dribs and drabs and it doesn't help being on this sofa bed. The mattress is as thin as a pancake.
I have however organised the District Nurse to come and take my bloods every Wednesday. She came yesterday and was really nice. So nice in fact that she ordered me a commode.
I was too gobsmacked to protest.
It did get me thinking though if I could get an over bed table and perhaps a mattress topper on loan. Will ask her next week.
I'm still batting away with my rag rug but having to wear plastic gloves over my hands does make it a bit trickier.
Oh...and I've discovered the joy of Kindle books. Useful for when you are awake at 3am and need some distraction.
Just trying to stay sane this time round. It's not easy. I have moments when I just want to burst into tears.
Glad that I can just come on here and whinge away. It really does help.
