Sobering

Spent the afternoon tidying dad's house. Threw out a pile of old unused clothes, and took away another bundle to wash for when he gets out of hospital. The survey for the replacement boiler was done, and the decorator came to give an estimate. Unfortunately we've discovered more damp and will need to have that repaired quickly.

Afterward we had a great meal at Morningside Pizza Express that put us both in a good mood, but an evening visit to dad in hospital sobered us. Physically he's recovering well but his mental state is worrying. He is seriously confused and knows it, he forgets where he is and then gets more worried. The worry makes him more distressed, and so it goes on...

Oh bugger.

And these are the last of our apple crop, good only for the compost heap.
