Carer Update

Thanks to everyone for your kindness and concern after my last post. We visited my brother this afternoon and evening, and he seems much better - in fact he managed some soup and a bread roll for tea, which is a fairly good indication that the immediate problem has resolved itself.

He's still going to see the doctor tomorrow, and the ward sister was talking about getting the dietician to talk to him as well - he was already pretty skinny, and of course not eating for several days meant he lost even more.

Hopefully they should let him out after that though, as he shouldn't be in need of any more medical treatment for the moment.

I'm glad to hear he's doing better. It sounds like he might be seeing one of my people, our department is closely involved with the dietitians. They're good people.

Let me know if there's anything you need.

Thank you very much. It was very encouraging to hear that he was finally able to eat properly.

I'll try and find out who he sees, but it's nice to hear they are a good bunch.
