equipment

Silver Chain are really good. They provide 24 hour phone support, regular nurse visits, useful equipment. Deb tells me that the equipment is because I am "palliative"... so SC know that I won't need it forever :-)

The SC trolley is brilliant. The original Zimmer frame, a revelation at the time, is comparatively awkward.
We even have a proper hospital bed from SC.
Not so good.

The bed is short, I have a foot sticking out to either side, resting on nearby footstools.
The big bed benefit is electric raising at the head and knees. I have a valley between head and knees, it's comfortable to just slip into that valley... except last night when the bed tried to slip me sideways... along the valley and onto the floor. 
Luckily Deb was nearby and saved me from an ignominious fall to the floor.

IDiscover that I may be in acceptance of impending death... but not accepting of troublesome equipment... mumble, mumble :-)
