It seems BiLs visit four days after MiLs 90 th was a one off. He hasn’t been in all week and when we arrived today the medication was behind her door so he had let himself in to drop it off. This must have been between 8am when the carer left and 11am when we arrived. I wonder what would happen if we bumped into each other one day.
His behaviour is becoming more erratic and his mum is pretty upset by it all, especially us now doing the shopping every week which was the one and only contribution he made to her care.

Sorry to hear that the situation isn’t improving Baz and you’ve been landed with even more to do.

It is what it is and to be honest doing shopping every week isnt much extra anyway. It’s more the upset and bewilderment from MiL thats hard to deal with.

Hope you can do your best to shrug and work round it Bazo. So long as you don’t expect anything from him, you can’t be too disappointed…
My brother is somewhat similar but my mother is compos mentis so I can leave them to manage their relationship as they choose. If/when she loses her marbles I may have similar issues to deal with.

Had a call out from the falls team as Mil fell and there was blood. Long wait for an ambulance so could we go round.
She seems fine but has a big cut still bleeding. Think it needs cleaned and stitches
Hopefully they will be here soon.
This comes at a time when BiL has apparently been back to see his mum on Tuesday night and is making some problems.

Ambulance crew arrived at 05:45. They were fabulous. Mil off to A&E to get patched up and a scan. It’s a nasty deep cut they couldn’t stop bleeding either.
We are home and I am off to work awaiting a call. Mrs axe cannot get away from work today and in fact I’d then until 9pm. I don’t drive.
I have updated BiL and asked for his support to get her home. He did go and see her on Tuesday so should be no excuses. No doubt though I will be leaving work and getting her home by taxi.
