Stressful day Sunday

Yesterday was not a good day. First I spoke to my friend Elaine on the phone and she told me her husband Geoff has only a matter of weeks to live.

Later Terry from across the road came to tell me his wife Jean had just gone up to bed as she wasn't feeling well and she was making a funny noise and he couldn't wake her up. I went across and she was unconscious. I called an ambulance and they came within 5 minutes, they took her to the hospital but there was nothing they could do. I managed to contact her daughter in St Albans and she drove down straight away. She was able to see Jean before they turned the ventilator off. It was such a shock as we had gone to the pub at lunch time with Terry and Jean and she seemed fine.

This morning I received an email from Spain to say another friend Joyce had passed away. Although it was expected it is still very sad and after all the bad news of yesterday something I didn't want to hear.
