Update on the update

Good news! Mum is back at home. She's feeling much better, though her foot is still sore and she's walking with a frame (have to say I find that hard to imagine!) So - won't be posting again (about this). Thanks for your mails, calls, comments etc.

Quick update

Happy to say that Mum is feeling better - her temperature is down and her blood pressure is up! (to normal that is). She's feeling tired - as you do after a high temperature - and her calf still hurts.  But she is off the drip and is looking better in general. (Have to say that this is Tuesday's news as Mike couldn't get to see her yesterday due to work commitments.) 

If I have any more news tonight I'll post again.

Back in hospital, but not to worry

Mum is back in hospital  - the Norfolk and Norwich this time - with an infection in her leg that is painful and causing a temperature. It's not related to the heart issues she had in the summer - something completely different the doctors say.

She is on antibiotics and could be in hospital for anything from two to five days.  She's feeling very tired and so best not to have any visitors till further notice. We're hoping she'll be home soon anyway.

If you would like to contact her, could you please do it via the comments box in this blog? (Just click on "comments" below and a comment box will open up. Write your message and then press the "publish" button  - you won't see it immediately as all comments go via me first.)

We will collate all comments and pass them on to her. That way neither her inbox or her postbox will be be overflowing and have to be "dealt with" when she gets back home. 

I'll post again as soon as we have any more news.

Thanks - and please pass the message on to anybody who may be interested!
