full turn

From one day to the next things can change so much.  Had  a phone call a few days ago to say mum had been put into hospital.  I didn’t know what to do.   I was due to go back to work the next day, so I decided to play it by ear and see how things went.  I looked at my calendar.  I was working all weekend but I had the following Tuesday off which was a week away.   I decided to take the Monday off and go up Monday and back Tuesday so I could check to make sure everything was ok and she was getting all the help she needed.   I worked Tuesday and Wednesday and called the hospital again to see how she was.  My brother was there.   Mum was upset.  She couldn’t understand why she was in hospital and just wanted to come home.  I talked to my brother.   You take tomorrow off and look after mum at home and I will be up there in the afternoon.   So I arrived on Thursday 20 October.  Things have been a mixed bag since.
