    We've just had a visit from Nrs healthcare, they spoke to my wife in hospital and after an assessment have fitted her with a pendant  connected to a speaker. There is also a box with a front door key outside the flat so if my wife was to black out whilst on her own the emergency services can get in.

    @johnbucky Good to hear from you and thanks for keeping us updated. 

    That's great that you and your wife are continuing to get additional support. How have things been for you since your wife came home from hospital? Hopefully, things have started to settle back down for you both and you've had the opportunity to rest up and take advantage some of the grand spring weather that we've been having?

    Do keep in touch. It's so lovely to hear that you're both doing OK. :)
