A Light Bulb moment

We have been waiting for a few weeks for this to arrive.  Well no, that's not strictly true because we have been waiting for Dunelm to deliver for a few weeks and they have failed totally on delivery ad sorting it out.  So we cancelled and ordered from somewhere else, something slightly different  and delivered within 4 days.

I love the patterns in this.  We decided not to use all of the fancy bits...  I expect you know what it is.

Last night, after Dad had fallen in his bedroom in the dark and created an egg on his head, I lay awake thinking about what I could do for him to improve his quality of life and state of mind.  I decided he needed a movement sensitive light for his bedroom so did one of my night time activities - internet ordering.  Light should come tomorrow.  Then I started thinking about his increasingly limited mobility and decided to investigate a wheelchair for him so that we can take him to places like shops or parks and he can at least see some more of our new surroundings.

I investigated FB marketplace and found a few second hand wheel chairs in the not too distant surroundings so at about 5 o'clock this afternoon Rob and I set off for Coventry.  We had a good journey there and back and paid £40 for a second hand lightweight (!!!!)  wheelchair.  I  think it will be useful and he seemed pleased with it.

Louie continues on his little way.  We pray very hard that he will not be affected too badly...
