Sat 2nd Apr

Nicola was 1st to visit Lindsey today, she was taking her shopping for Mothers Day,when she arrived at hospital it was lunch time,when lunch was over Lins needed to use the toilet before going out, she called for the HCA,she came along with the hoist. Nic explained that she no longer used this,the HCA declared that there  was no way they could use the transfer board for her. Nick was very angry with their attitude and told them to read the notes on the board above her bed there was full instruction on what to do. Eventually because of their ineptitude it took another hour and a half before they were ready to go into town. Charlotte and Holly joined them in town and they were out for a good few hours, they got back on the ward in time for dinner.  As I arrived at hospital in the evening I was met by Nic and Lins they were going out for another walk as Lins has been very upset and weepy and really doesn't want to be in there. We go for a walk but by now its really quite cold and we head back to the ward Lin is lethargic again and nothing we say will bring out her smile . Nic and Ewan leave and David arrives still she is unhappy , the fresh air has left her very tired hopefully she will sleep well tonight..
