top ten ~ 12 Oct 11, and newcastle bound...

Hello petals. 
As you read this I will be driving up the M-something or other on my way to Newcastle...
My mum's having an operation tomorrow
and I need to look after dad while she's in the hospital...
I'm hoping it will be simple and straightforward
but in their 80's, and with dementia involved, nothing is certain is it.
So I may be off the air for a little bit.
Or I might take my camera and find a few of my childhood haunts :)
either way, if you could cross fingers and toes for me...
I'd be very grateful :)

  1. I hope your Mum's operation goes well. I'll keep everything crossed.

    And make the most of the time with your Dad. Sitting in the sun with him and a cup of tea in contemplative silence sounds like a nice way to spend some hours.

  2. Good luck to your mother, and to you. It all sounds a bit difficult. I'm glad you got to look at those wonderful yellow windows before you left. Many kind wishes on your trip. x

  15. Fingers and toes all crossed Kerry - I had to make a dash for my mum last year, and it couldn't have been better, I think she faced her worst fear (going into hospital) and was rejuvenated to have stared her imaginings down~

    I wish you as happy an outcome.
