My nephew is in hospital. He has been there since Friday at 8am. He needs an abscess draining that is causing him a lot of pain. It is only a ten minute operation but emergencies get priority and he keeps getting pushed down the list. We should hear tomorrow that hopefully it has been done.
Up at 07.20 this morning, but felt it was a bit early. Pottered around opening windows then pottered off back to bed. Got up again at 09.15. Because we have no transport we are stuck here until Fran comes; he said he would pick us up early afternoon. We had toast for breakfast, showered and filled the time with household chores. Had coffee and cake at 11, Mum didn't have cake! Liz popped in from next door, she had bought us a long brush for the floor while we had been away. That will save on the bums up from under the table! It got to lunch time, I made a salad sandwich but Mum just had a cream cracker and a couple of pieces of nougat. Her guts are upset. They are not used to kebab. I was just tucking in when Fran arrived. I thought and so did Mum that we would be going to Kingsley Street for tea, but we were apparently not invited. Fran kindly took us to the supermarket and I asked, after we had the shopping if we would be dropping it back at the unit and was answered in the affirmative, but when we got back he said he might see us later and left. He also said that he thought Liz was having a Scottish Evening and he thought she might invite us. She hadn't said anything although we had seen her twice already today.
Fran also thought it would be a good idea if I walked the 4kms into Cambridge to hire a car, although he had originally said he would check prices on the internet first. He obviously was not going to have us at Kingsley Street. I said to Mum when he went had we done something to upset him? But she couldn't think of anything. So then I got really cross about it. We are his guests and he has abandoned us. We have no phone and no transport. Mother is quite fit, but she is 75. If he was so busy he could have asked if Diane would pick us up, rather than leaving us to walk all that way. I'm still cross about it.
