Sally seemed much happier this evening when i came in to see her, she had befriended one of her ward mate, or she befriended Sally, probably a bit of both, they get on very well together, always chatting to each other, and seem to have a lot in common including the same Silver Chains home nurse!!

They had taken the sample and is now awaiting results, possibly by tomorrow, then will probably know whether she will soon be coming home or needs further tests and treatments. I am somewhat relieved to see that her sores are finally starting to clear, indeed the sores on her sides are about 90% cleared. It's hard to say whether it is the continuing treatments at the hospital or the Essential Oils, I suppose it is a bit of both. However I am hoping they will keep her in until the sores clears completely. I have a huge electricity bill to pay and the only way it can be paid is if i don't have to outlay any more money on bandages etc. If they send her home and I need to  start ordering bandages again, quite simply the electricity bill will not be paid, and in spite of the extension that they granted me, for the first time in my life we will have our electricity cut off. This has never happened before, not even in my childhood at the public housing estate when mother was on a pension, we were in poverty and had to make do without a lot of things other kids took for granted but she always managed to pay her household bills, we never had any utilities cut off. Anyway i suppose we will just have to wait and see how things pans out, and hope they keep her in long enough for the sores to clear completely so won't have to spend any more money on bandages when she comes home.
