💥Trigger warning💥
This is my lovely dad 🥰
And this is the reason I’ve been closed for the past week - and unfortunately why I have to remain closed until Thursday 19th Oct. No Friday dinners again next week.
I went to visit my parents in Wales last Sunday just for the night. When I arrived at theirs to take them out for brekkie on Monday, dad was having a stroke 😔
My brother and I took him to A&E as the ambulance wait was 3 hrs. He’s still in the high dependency ward, improving slowly we hope. It’s a long road.
To add to the heartbreak, my mum (for those who don’t know) has Alzheimer’s. She needs someone with her 24/7 hence I’ve been there this week and need to go again next. To watch your mum crumple every hour when she asks where dad is, is absolutely heartbreaking. Such a cruel, cruel disease.
Anyway, just wanted to keep you all up to date and to apologise for the disruption. Thanks for your patience and understanding 💛
