I don't know if I've mentioned but from Kayleigh's new house you can see where nanna lives.

Around 10 last night Kayleigh phoned asking what was wrong as there was an ambulance outside nanna's and all her lights were on. I phoned and my uncle answered, it turns out nanna was just about to be blue lighted to hospital after going to the doctor's earlier with chest pains. They'd taken a blood test and after checking it all sorts of red flags went up and she was sent to hospital with suspected heart failure and other things.

She had a bad night, when talking to my uncle he said he wouldn't be surprised if she didn't leave the hospital again. But, we've just talked to him again and he'd left there at 6am, and she's rallied and was looking better after meds and attention. She's still very ill though, but at least not on the verge of death like we though last night.

We'll be going to see her later, but I could do with going to bed again now there's some good news as neither of us slept last night. James really should have a nap too because he was at work to 2am.

I also feel bad about the carers seeing her to bed lately. I know I shouldn't, it's what had to happen, and what will need to happen in the future. Or more likely, thoughts about a home, even if it's said just to be a short-term thing at first. But that didn't help when I thought we were going to lose her last night.

*hugs*

Fingers crossed that she'll be with you for a while longer. And I hope you and James get a chance to rest.
