still no definate news as yet about the move, but we r still assuming it will be on 28th. gom tried 2 get rodney 2day, but he'd only just got back 2 the office after a few days off so he couldn't tell us anything.
Had a frustrating night last night - gom as been advised to try to start using an 'independance aid' instead of getting up in the night to use the commode as it's believed that the number of times that he's getting up is possibly causing his problems with weakness and spasticity in the late afternoon/evenings, but he couldn't get on with it so we're going to leave it until he goes 2 stay with his stsister so that she can help him - she has a nursing background although she's in a a 'back room' field now.
We're also working on getting him to drink much more - he wasn't getting anywhere near enough to the recommended 2 ltrs which was also probably contributing to his problems. Have managed to find some 33cl drink bottles so I can make up some drink and am trying to get him to drink one of these about every 90 minutes (500 ml wasn't manageble, but 330ml should be) and being in bottles it's less likely to end up all over the floor if he knocks it over :(

Oh well everything is back on hold again.
everything seemed to be 'bobbing along' quite nicely until last Tuesday when we had a call from the agent to say that our buyer's buyers wanted to move into his property by the 13 Feb. We can't do this as we won't be able to get David to his sisters - she's away from 9th to 19th.
He then came back and said could we do 6th or 7th..... NEXT WEEK - we said if the solicitors were ok then we supposed we'd have to. Called the solicitor he was ok, so wednesday I was ringing around all the various care organisations that we use.
Late Wednesday, we had a call from Rodney (our solicitor) for us to go and sign the contract(s) Thursday Morning for exchange on Friday (3rd).
While we were in signing, a call came in, one of the other solicitors wasn't ready - they now wanted 27th, but as it's a Monday, we said we'd prefer the 28th so that we can get David to his sisters over the previous weekend and I've then got the monday to do the last minute packing.
No more news yesterday so assume we're going with the new dates. So NOW I've got to ring round again on Monday and change everything that I arranged on Wednesday AAGGHH.
Also got to try and minimise the amount of space taken up by all the boxes that I packed up on Wednesday - at the moment I have two stacks almost ceiling high..........
