Thanks Muchly Myrtle Mags and Val.Re: Bob's Bits.
Old age is so cruel isn't it OGF, I agree sometimes medical interventions can be counter productive... Get it off your chest here all you want, at least here you are among pals of a similar generation who understand. I hope your wife copes ok. Not a nice situation for any of you. Chin upRe: Bob's Bits.
It is so sad Bob, my mum was just the same, coming up to ninety and she regularly said she hoped she could go to sleep and not wake up. This is more or less what happened but the sad part for me was that she died alone.Re: Bob's Bits.
Thanks for all your kind words of support. I have just left FiL's flat now as he was taken away in an ambulance. Mrs Fox has gone with him to hospital, it was the only way that he would agree to go. After he seemed to deteriorate further today, the family agreed that he should be seen by a professional, so the emergency number was called and within minutes Two ambulances arrived.Re: Bob's Bits.
Foxy I recently had a chest infection, and although my doctors know that I am very good at maintaining good blood sugar levels, none of us were able to reduce them. Infections thrive on high blood sugar, so medications need to be adjusted... not easy when you are dealing with an elderly person!Re: Bob's Bits.
Thanks Twink, and you are right about the diabetes connection.
