Every cloud..........
My Dad had a close escape on Friday. After the big scare with his heart and discovering he's suffering from angina he got the train home last Monday night, which is perhaps just as well as, had he not, he would have been on the train that crashed on Friday. It's difficult to see an angina attack as being fortuitous but it this case I think it probably was. He had more tests at the local hospital yesterday and yet again has ben told he has to change his diet and his lifestyle but it's difficult to get anything out of him at the moment he's walking about as if he has the weight of the world on his shoulders and doesn't seem event o have time for Maia which is most unusual. I have tried telling him that this has been a warning and he's being given a second chance, which a lot of people don't get but it's falling on deaf ears.
On a positive note I had some lovely days off, it really makes a difference when you actually do something during your days off, and most importantly actually have the energy to do something. D and I went to the Glasgow Art Galleries yesterday, which was wonderful and the first time I've been since it's been refurbished; we then had a lovely lunch at Stravaigan.
Oh well back to work tomorrow, only 6 more labour ward shifts before I'm back at uni, it's amazing how quickly this year is passing, I'll be a fully qualified and registered midwife before I know it....still gives me butterflies :o)
