Care Package

[poliphilo]

The social worker came to see us at Eric's bedside and talked to us about putting a care package together. Eric had his eyes open much of the time but didn't seem to be taking any of it in.

"Shrug". I don't know. I can't read him. He was totally compus mentis when he went into hospital a month ago.

This isn't an uncommon story, I'm afraid - it happens so often that a problem is revealed in hospital - perhaps because of the separation from daily things and familiar surroundings
I hope that the social worker is as good as my mother's was - I don't know how I'd have coped without her -

This young woman seemed very competent, but we've only met her the once.
