Bucket

Joined briefly on the ward last night by a confused but feisty 88 yr old. For much of the night she described detailed routes thru her house in a hunt for arcane items - hearing aid batteries, a bucket in the kitchen, was obsessed about window orientation. In the morning as she sought the kitchen bucket (a commode sufficed) we saw H was blind. As the staff made beds she told great stories of training her 5 Guide Dogs like Whisp who did 'Busy for a Biscuit' in the garden (not in a bucket) before bed.

  2. So can we expect Spike to be 'busy for a biscuit' on your return to the outside world?

  3. Thanks Kate!

    Biscuit's have little influence - very different to another (much missed) dog.
