Demantia: Decadence Sets In!

After a Friday night with a difference we have decided decadence is the only way forward.  We’ve just been listening to UB 40 in bed as we ate our porridge at 1.45 in the afternoon.  

You might be able to guess what Ali and Chrissie were singing.   Well we’ve got our excuses for staying in bed late after last night.

Maureen is still very pensive and keeps thinking about why she is having to stay in this ‘Care Home’.  She feels she is going to be kept here until the money runs out.  No matter what I say Maureen does not believe this is her home.  In her opinion she is here because her family don’t want her.

A post card arrived a short while ago from her son who has called in at Rome on a cruise.  She amazed me that she could read most of it without her glasses. I am hoping that her eye test on Monday will lead to new spectacles to replace those that have been missing for a couple of weeks.  This might mean that we can resume crosswords and other activities where she will need her glasses.

Who knows what the rest of the day will bring?  The sun is shining so I am hoping a short walk will blow away the cobwebs for both of us.
