Where are the Snow People?
A reasonable day today, odds and ends and a meeting for research on Care Act Assessments after my guitar lesson (which was truncated due to Mr T needed assistance)! That got me out of the aural training exercises! The researchers are all so good with Mr T, and take time to say hello and listen to him. They find it hard to recruit dementia patients and so are always happy to hear his thoughts.
This afternoon we had a visit from my "line manager" at the Carer's Support Centre. First time of meeting in person and we had a few things to talk through, one of which was my symbolic strike idea! I also need to revisit my Blog so they can use it as the 'Carer's Voice' on the website.
An extra of last night's full moon.
While this was happening I could hear Elf and Safety in the background.
Elf?
Yes Safety.
Have you seen the Snow People this year?
No they are still in Mr P's loft.
Oh, didn't they get brought down when we did?
No Safety, Mr P said he couldn't put any decorations up this year.
Oh, that's very sad Elf. Mrs P knew he loves Christmas so very much. Remember she bought him the special tree after his heart attack.
I know Safety, it is very sad. I heard Mr P talking to Mrs T this morning. She was very surprised that he asked how she was and said he realises how much she does, and how hard he finds it doing everything himself. It was good that they had a chat don't you think Elf?
Indeed I do! I think we need to explore while Mrs T is chatting to Susy. Mrs T was doing something this morning and I'm curious!
Mrs P might still be able to see if we leave our 'shelf'. She would tell us off.
Well Safety, Mrs P will always be with us in spirit, and she will make sure we don't come to any harm.
But how will she do that Elf?
By us keeping her in our hearts, we will keep her with us and every day try to make sure she'd be proud of what we do. We will always be sad she isn't here, but she will always be here, we will see little signs when we need them to know her love is still there.
Oh, Elf. I feel very emotional. Can we go exploring? We have these funny bumpy things that Mrs P didn't have. How ever will we get up there?
