Hello
I'm sorry I've been quiet, I've not been myself as my dad has been poorly again and I've been quite worried, we all have however he's feeling much better today so I feel I can rest easy again for the time being.
My dad woke up on Sunday, felt really dizzy and lost his balance, mum was beside him and caught him so he didn't fall to the ground but he couldn't find his feet and he got ever so upset as he was going to church. I was at home and he felt a little better but was very low.
Yesterday he felt worse and mum ended up getting the ambulance out to him. Turns out he's got an ear infection which has really messed with his balance and the pain his in has been making him very dizzy. Fortunately he wasn't admitted but given some tablets for the ear.
Today ~ sweet relief he's felt a bit better and was a little more chatty today. He still looks peaky though but then again he's 84 and been through a lot the last couple years with his heart valve stuff so I'm just glad that I'm not coming on here with really bad news. Phew!
Food wise, I've been ok I think, or hope rather, I've done one SP day but felt really bloated on it! Not sure why so I've stuck with EE as it feels better on my tum, not sure why? Today I've had no potato, pasta or rice but I've had a mini corn on the cob and a yogurt. Weird!
Anyhow I'll have a proper catch up tomorrow,mope everyone is well, night night xx
