About Me
- Vetnurse
- I am a Rhodesian by birth was born & brought up in Bulawayo. We came to UK when l was 16. My other half l lived 5 years in Tenerife. While there l ran the kennels for K9 animal rescue. I was head keeper at Tenerife Sur Zoo for a time. l believe in Angels & have seen mine several times. I can't cook and hate the cold & wet on Mud Island. I call a spade a spade or a shovel or a thing to dig a hole. I am a locum veterinary nurse & have 11 years emergency night nursing under my belt, now l only work days. Brian passed in a skydiving accident in 2010 that killed him & his friend, I know he is with me he helps, guides me & gives me strength to go on when l falter, which is quite often. I met Andy and we married last year. He is just as amazing as Brian but totally different except they were/are both great cooks. I am now polyandrous . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Any animal should always be treated by a vet. The comments in this blog are my own observations, Animal details changed situations are real.

Dearest Caro, I am so very sorrow to hear of the passing of your Dad. Angels watch over and comfort you and your Mom. Much Love, Lesley XXX
I am so sad to hear the news about your lovely Dad. Sending you huge hugs and to let you know that I am thinking of you!!
With Love, Jane xxx
i am so sorry for your loss. take care of yourself and your mum. many hugs.
My condolences C. Welcome back his spirit with joy.
I really do feel for you, my father died last year, and (although not in a care home) the story of 'couldn't care less' NHS staff is pretty much identical.
We are pursuing complaint action - it won't change anything, but by God, it makes us feel better!
Chin up, you'll get through it, no matter how bad it seems at the moment. There's no other alternative, after all, is there?
Caro
My deepest sympathy to you and yours.
Thinking of you

Bad days for you - but 93 glorious years to soften the blow.
Mortality is a thought nobody likes to address - Thinking of you now .... SOC
Sending thoughts to you as you go through this difficult time. Take good care.
I am so sorry to hear that xxx
My condolences too.
Many thanks everyone. So far l am doing fine but Mum is having a hard time.
I am sorting the paperwork myself so far seems to be going ok.
Probate what's worrying me most trying to work out what the heck it is for everything is very vague l have read on it but that's tomorrows job. If worse comes to worse will get a lawyer for that.
Hub said today that looking at me mumbling and muttering he is going to put together a file with all the info to hand. Banks and numbers, insurance companies policy details, who holds what and where. Tick boxes for contacted/date/outcome etc.
I think it is also sensible to consider a low cost funeral plan. Wills we have.
Julia good luck with your complaint. What the heck is up with the nhs. The ambulance service has been outstanding. A & E and resus have been excellent. As soon as the patient hits the wards things seems to dissolve.
Re your last and JuliaM's, it is amazing how many families, my own included, have stories of utter horror and disgrace, re elderly loved ones who have been let down/abandoned/overlooked/left unwashed/dentures mouldering...I could go on. No compassionate individual nurse or doctor would deliberately do such a thing, yet systemically these things happen and are horrific. Stay angry but in control, Julia and Caro.
I only just caught up with the news - so sorry to hear you have lost your Dad. You have battled hard with him - I know he will have appreciated all you did.
Thnking of you

Just caught up with the blog, sorry to hear your news... you and your family are in my thoughts xx
