I can imagine, they did not have hoists it was hard graft then. Mrs Green needs a bed bath, mrs red needs a bath mrs blue needs the sheets changed again.

Being in hospital, recently well in December when I had my hand op, well a nurse was sent to help me wash as one arm was in a plaster cast.

When I'd had my bed bath I thought I would get up and dressed and sit in my wheelchair.

I was kept in bed, as no one knew how to get me out of bed. So bed I stayed. They asked how I manage at home I said it was just me and hubby managed on our own.

Although they have these aids, well maybe they did not it the ward I was in, I think it was quick stay ward. if they do, they don't use them.

I was well looked after though, I will say that.

A lot of nursing is theory based now and not ward based, so a lot of them dont know one end of a person from another, but times change, not sure if it for the better. Nursing is a lot of common sense and quick thinking and a lot of compassion. I always said, if I can make a difference, to each patient, each day, then I have done my job.

I will have to go in a moment Bubbles, I have to take my sleeping tablet, I forgot to take it.

I'm feeling whacked out again although I had a sleep during the day I do feel tired.

I will talk to you tomorrow You have a good night. I know you will potter and go out the back for a ciggy.

sending you (((((())))))

love Trish xxxxx

As I have been in hospital so much and for long periods at a time, that is so nice to hear. I have been treated so well at times. I made a lots of nurse friends before I went home. Some still write to me.

I used to be the pin cushion for the young nurses to practise their first injection on, if it helped them then I was pleased to do it.

I'm sure you did make a difference to a lot of people. Where would we be without people like you.
