Amy, thinking of you and sending out loads of good wishes to your mum. ♥

tried calli dad all last night and im really cranky with him cause he was on the computer so i couldnt get through to him.

My sis ended up riniging me this morning.

So they gave mum her first dose in the morning. They gave it to her before dad got there and he was very angry about that so i dont think they'll do that again.

Mandy didnt get up to see Mum till about 4pm.

She said they were watching tv and something funny happened and Mum laughed and then dad told a joke and Mum laughed again and Dad said "well, she hasnt done that for quite a while"

So????

I really hope i get to talk to dad tonight.
I want to let him know that the Doctor in South Africa says to keep her on 10mg for a week and if it doesnt make her sleepy , up it to 15mg. The trick to getting the best out of this is to try and find the maximum she can take without getting sleepy

:^O so they got a laugh out of her??? and not just once but twice??? that is actually really good news...

Has your dad got dial up??? If so he really needs to go on a basic ADSL plan to free up that line.. either that get msn so you can message him when you can't get through. His emails must take forever to go through and I bet if he discovered how fast ADSL is he would never go back.

(((Amy))) I hope the response is a real one.

yeh cat- dad has shocking dial up. The slowest ive ever seen.
He is a complete no nothing when it comes to computers. No way could he ever handle MSN or facebook. He cant even handle emails.
All he does on it is browse ebay. He buys things but i have to complete the transaction (pay, leave feedback etc).
Theres no way he could organise for ADSL.
Ive told him that next time i go to Dubbo, i'll get him on ADSL.

Amy although I dont post often I have continued reading this thread & I am excited that she has had a reaction. I'm really surprised the nurse didnt wait for you Dad to get there, that must have been so disappointing 😞
I cant wait to hear how this trial goes & I am sending you much love & good vibes :-x

yeh, dad definatly let his feelings known regarding not waiting for him to get there.
The head nurse was also away so another nurse gave it.
It so un organised up there

As a nurse myself I would have thought they would be really eager, interested & excited to be trialling this. I know I would have been!

Amy, that is fantastic news! :-x

Great news Amy.

MIght be different for a nursing home, but in the hospital we have to give medication at the time specified by the DR, its a DRs order. If that was the case, then they should have let your Dad know what time they would be giving the medication.
