Lollipops!

Well, why not? I bought a huge tub of these from the Internet - supposedly mainly for my son, but guess who has been eating them the most?! :-))) We've had them for two months now though, and there's still half a tub left!

Good news and some not so good news over the last couple of days. My home group leader didn't have a heart attack, it was angina, brought on by a sudden change in blood pressure. He is now back home and has to rest for a few days.

My Dad's carer rang this afternoon to say that she'd had to take him to the doctor because he was feeling very odd, with a lot of pressure in his head. It turns out he has very high blood pressure and the doctor has put him on fast acting medication to bring it down. He's never had this before, but he has been getting rather stressed over a couple of health problems that he's had recently. They aren't life threatening, but they are inconvenient for him and have been ongoing for a while and I think the stress has built up. And he's not getting any younger! He will be 90 in June. Anyway, we're going over to see him tomorrow as it's Stuart's birthday, so we can see how he's getting on then.
