Yes he has an urinary track infection which has left him very dizzy and he actually fell in the bathroom yesterday so got taken to hospital. A little more steady on his feet today but cannot stand as yet unaided due to the infection all other responses normal in his nerves etc so it is just the infection. Very high tempreture as well plus he really does not cope well with hospital life so very stressful. Fortunately he does has telephone facilities at his bed (expensive something like min 50 pence per min) but at least he can ring someone to just say hello. TV is expensive as well though because he is over 65 he gets it half price but still 10.00 pounds sterling for 6 days. Food is awful no longer done by hospital staff but has been outsourced to a catering company and the standard is dreadful. Then to cap it all we got a blocked toilet at home due to drain being blocked.
Expense everywhere

I'm sorry to hear that. We have a saying 'When it rains, it pours.' And it definitely seems that bad events sometimes come in bunches, doesn't it.
