This summer has shown my family and me a lot of challenges. Health issues, adequate care, a battle to get my father the care environment he needed. I know we are not unique; so many families go through the same struggles.
I know other provinces and indeed other countries have chronic health care inadequacies, staff shortages and burn out. Especially in these pandemic times.
Thankfully, Thursday we were able to place my father in a lovely care home that will ensure his safety and 24/7 care and attention. It is just around the corner from my mom, so she can easily visit him!
Bill continues to do well at his care facility. It has been so hot lately that our morning visits we just have a short walk before we are ducking back into the refreshing air conditioned home to sit and watch the fish tanks (what I call Fish TV)
Ol' Choppy has been limping sporadically the past 4 or 5 weeks. On Wednesday it was quite pronounced, so Friday first thing I was able to have him seen by the vet. He does have arthritic hips, so I will continue with meloxicam and try to temper his attempts to keep up to Leggy in the backyard.
After ny visit today with Bill I got caught up on housework and now I will attempt to sew/work on this dress project I started a few weeks ago.
