The other morning when about to get washed mum realised that she was still wearing her watch and her night time wrist alarm. She came out of the bathroom holding her wrists towards me saying “I need to take these clogs off my corners, they’re bumpy & clunky!”
These funny moments are the ones you cling to for dear life!!!! When dealing with such a shitty and cruel disease you have to find the humour wherever you can and these days I’m even more grateful for it as it’s no longer so often xxx
Mum & I were talking about monkeys. She said “People in hospitals have monkey’s, no not hospitals, what’s it called when people are locked up?”
“Prison?”
“That’s right. People in prison like to have monkeys or other wild animals, when they’re allowed to, otherwise they have toy ones!”
The lady Mum had a meeting with at Truro Cathedral was her best customer when she used to sell paper sheets!
This morning after her wash Mum walked into her bedroom to get dressed & I heard her say “I won’t be offended if you don’t join me in the mornings!” I assumed that our cat Kobie had got into her room but when I asked her who she was talking to she said her fat stomach!
Mum said “Someone asked me about kids once & I said you just feed them, they like that AND it keeps them alive!”
“I went out with the lady this morning who was a scientist. She couldn’t find what she was looking for but I found it.” I asked “What was it?” “The address of where we needed to go!”
Mum says we have fish every night because we have a pussy cat & a pussy cat is a fish!
