Quick update. No real changes but Helen's chest infection has cleared finally :). Her blood sugars are more stable so she is trialling being off the insulin sliding scale, which seems to be going ok. She is just having 74 units of Lantus after her feed restarts at lunchtime.
We are still waiting for a bed at Holy Cross. I called Putney yesterday to arrange a visit there but couldn't speak to anyone about visiting so I'll try again today.
Helen has been given her ESA. I got a credit in the nominated account this morning so hopefully there should be a letter informing me about it. I couldn't believe how quick it was!! I got a text from DLA saying they had received the application and it would take up to 8 weeks to make a decision. I've got to set up another account to pay the money into so it is totally separate to mine.
Now I've just got to think what to buy Helen for Christmas and her birthday!! There's a limit to the number of nighties she can have.
