Was up and out at 5.30 with the dog. Met our friend, she is always out with hers at that time.
After breakfast I will think about getting out for some shopping. A quick stop in town for Boots and their wax earplugs. Having to use them most nights now, because NfH won’t stop with the fag breaks, slamming the door, talking, laughing, right up until about 12.30am. It is continuous. So I can’t wait for next week.
Morning everyone, I started a new thread, an announcement, but am waiting for it to be approved.
I am sorry to say that Susie passed away this morning, around 10. I was there, from 7.50 for about hour and half, talking to Rob her husband, and offering what help I can. He will need some, as he doesn’t understand computers, can’t write letters, and will at some point need to tell Susie’s sister, if only by email.
She had been in for a few weeks with too much fluid in her chest cavity. A doctor drained off a large syringe full from her back yesterday, which he was getting analysed. And told Rob she still had about 2L in there.
He got the call about 6.15 to say she had taken a turn for the worse, called me straight away, and I decided, after seeing to myself and Holly, to get up there.
When I was there, someone came and explained that her breathing was unsustainable, and one by one her organs would fail when getting starved of oxygen. Rob had already told me at 6.30am that she didn’t have long.
Yes it is. We used to meet in Lowestoft town for a walk round, or a hot drink. I’ve been to their house on occasions, they once visited me and Holly when I had a caravan break. She’s not been well enough for awhile now, to do any of that.
So sorry to read this Jazzi , Susie had been a member a long time , and I always enjoyed reading her post , especially about her Cat and the old house she had before moving to where she is now .
I hope you are ok ,you have been a freind of Susie for a while and it can come a bit of a shock .
Sending my Condolences to her Husband who she mentioned in post .
Take care Jazzi
I’m mostly packed. Not sure when the two ladies will arrive to get me home but around 2 I believe. I think they want to beat the school run.
Taken Holly for a long walk and decided to go on the beach on way back. It wasn’t far. Now trying to relax on my chair but having to lusten to one of the gardeners revving something. Argh. I want my peace n quiet.
Morning … I’ve just hooverd and flopped down on the sofa to cool off.
I wonder whether I survived the 76’ heatwave better than this … I can’t remember it bothering me too much then.
Not sure if on the announcement thread, but my car has broken down and is currently in a garage. They can’t even look at it till mid next week. I’ve been losing some fluid from somewhere, breakdown driver wondered if transmission? Hope not an expensive fix.
Susie’s husband now not answering the phone so I’m getting concerned.
Still nobody has been able to get hold of Susie’s husband. By Monday, if he hasn’t returned any of our calls, I will have to try another way.
I was in Bon Marche yesterday, buying more stuff for my nieces’ weddings outfits, and they asked if I wanted the loyalty card 10% discount. I said yes, and when I got home noticed they’d actually charged me £3 more, £26.40, not £23.40. So my bill actually came to 40p more than before discount. Grrrr. Need to bus back into town and get that refunded.
