I Have A New Toy

[debris4spike]

Brilliant to get to Church this morning although weird to be prayed for while there. Weird but nice. Everyone has been very thoughtful .... as they have seen my year of struggle and have seen me having to stand during services as the seats cause my legs to cramp . They also know about Dads Alzheimer's so know part of what I am going through. Sadly there are others at Church who are suffering... 3 with on going cancer and 2 of the ladies have recently had hip replacements after breaking them

When I got back I made lunch although that ended up delayed as Dad got stuck in the bath and I had to lift him out!!

After dinner I did the washing-up while Mum and Dad had a snooze then I took Jiffy for a walk.

The overall good news is that I have treated myself to a small tablet so I am writing this so that I can post it when I get internet .... I still have to register it .... so will do it when I get home tonight. I hope it/ helps me to keep up with LJ ....although I have to try to get the codes for Dads internet router. I keep the code of mine on the bottom of the connector.

I won't have time to get to answer your previous comments although they were amazing and really mean so much. Your love and support has truly meant so much .... THANK YOU more than I can

The tablet sounds like a great idea.

Can anyone from the church offer practical help as well as prayer?

The tablet is great ... in fact I am using it now as I sit with mum and dad and watch a DVD of The Waltons

Everyone at Church have offered all sorts of help ... but really there is very little that can be done ... a few pop in but sadly there are a couple of the Chapel who have cancer so there is a lot of sadness around.

I'm glad you will be able to connect with us a bit more regularly again! Don't worry about responding to comments - I think everyone understands that you are only able to answer intermittently.

It is great to play with the tablet ... I am actually using it now while sitting with mum and dad and watching a DVD

Tablets can be a life saver when you are away from home. When we were all taking turns taking care of my dad we talked him into getting internet because it was useful for all of us. Dad complained about the cost, even though sister #1 got a great deal and the bill ended up costing less than what he was paying before internet. Maybe you can look into that at your parents house?

Dad has internet and I managed to get the codes ... his pc is what wasn't connecting, so it's good to have time with friends, like now, even though I am watching a DVD with them 😄. Dad used to use the pc quite a bit until his Alzheimer's took over
