My Dad - Oct. '88
Dave & I went to see my dad yesterday (he's in a home because he has Alzheimer's) and it was the homes Christmas Party, we arrived around 4.30 and it was packed - it was nice to see it so well attended.
Dad was in his room (again!) and didn't want to come down at first - but as soon as we told him there was food and 'possible' drink down there he changed his mind and almost jumped out of bed and got dressed (unaided), brushed his hair and off we went. He had a great time and it was so nice to see him laughing and joking with the other residents and guests & having a good time - I'm so annoyed with myself for not taking the camera....
...we won a bottle of champagne & wine, biscuits & a t-shirt on the raffle - so it was worth buying a tenner worth of tickets...
