I went to see Edna after work tonight. She really wasnt well and clearly was on a downswing with her memory. She was supposed to go to Mosely Hall today for soe Lung function tests but forgot. But she doesn't have a letter or anyhting that I can check whats going on. So tommorrow I will ring them and hope I can get through to the right deprtament and find out if she DID miss an appointment, and when her next one is. I have told her I can keep track of her appointmnets and ring her to remind her on the day.
I have also suggested she leaves all paperwork to me. She had a statemnet from Nat West that she was worried about becasue it showed all the withdrawals from her account where I had done shopping for her with the card. She then said would I be sure not to let her run out of money. I pointed out she has WELL over 10,ooo in the account (Nat West are not happy about all that money in a current account and have tried to get me to change it - but she wont and it is her money)
We alos discussed shopping. Sghe had made a list in the hope that she could get one of the Fosters girsl to do it- although I think she knows she won't. Anyway she has decided she needs to shop for teo weeks rather than one to save me making too many trips. So I took the list and immediately crossed some things off because I know she doesn't need them. She had small tins of baked beans down, She must have 10 tins already in the cupboard. I have conceded on the 2 bags of sugar and the butter but have refused to buy teabags. She wanted 160 - but she rhas an unopened pack of 80 and a part used pack tat is still quarter full. She wasnt happy.
She was very down physically and mentally today. She was very huffy and puffy and oo's and ouches. But the next minute she could be as bright as a button and asking about Steve's huse and his girlfriend. So I'm not 100% sure all the ill health was real - and I am wondering what lies behind the behaviour if some of it was an act.
Telepathy of some sort would be SUCH a usefu; skill at times.
