waiting...................

I went to see Edna tis morning hoping to hear that the move to ROH was being organised. There is a real chance it will not happen until tomorrow. It is now 4.00pm and the ward said they would ring me as soon as they had any news. I did offer to stay with Edna (and the ward would not have kicked me out even during meal times) but she was adamant she didnt want me to saty - and I wasn't really doing anything useful.

She was in pain and is on Oramorph as well as Co-codamol 30/500. It is obvious the staff are all concerned about her - but equally obvious they can't see what the orthopods can do.

All I can do is wait, pray and try to stay sane. It looks as if I missed a days work for no reason today since clearly I am not going to be spending much (if any) time getting Edna settled. But would my mind be on work if I was there? I don't think I would.

She was more confused today (undoubtedly the Oramorph) and we are back to Doris being on the ward. An oldy but goody.

I will pop in to see her again tonight if the move doesn't happen to try and cheer her up.
