SCAN RESULTS FOR MY BRAVE DAD

Hi Jo,

You mentioned your sister making a shake for your dad - when I came out of hospital they gave me Fortisip, it's a milkshake type drink in many flavours and containing nutrients. It may give him something extra.

You can see the details on their website- www.fortisip.co.uk You may be able to get your GP to prescribe this for your dad.

Morning Sweetpea. I expect Fortisip is like Ensure, which is also a milkshake type drink.

They might be handy to have as an emergency and should be available on prescription for your dad. I expect though that making the shakes is your sister's way of showing her love and she would probably be reluctant to stop.

I am so glad everyone on his health team has the time to give. It isn't always the case but it's wonderful when it works out

All the best
Sandra

Hi Jo,


Some one recently said to me in our own situation "One day at a time" and I just wanted to pass this on to you . I think it is pretty apt .
