..... Unique and 84 ....... and Joans Mother fell downstairs last night when Joan was 'up north' visiting her for a few days.
Was a flurry of activity and ambulance followed by a operation today as she has broken her hip. Joan says the efficiency and warmth by the Nation Health Service was and continues to be wondrous.

So so so ..... instead of Joan coming home today she bed-siding it with her brother David ......... Joy is due to fly into Manchester from S Africa any day soon so she can slip to St Helens to see her Nana ....... and the rest of us through the diaries out of the window as we pray and do the best thing.

...... makes you think about when we are 84 ...... who will do the caring for us?
Makes me think of a few years ago when Joan fell in the garden here and broke her leg. I was wired up and could not hear a thing until the next door neighbour dashed in and ........... my life changed .....

Thinking about it ...... we had some wonderful help from so many people as Joan was in plaster and could hardly move for months .........

Life is uncertain for us in the next few weeks or more ...
