Isobel was very unsteady on her feet when she woke this morning and found walking more of a challenge than usual all day. Her speech was somewhat better than normal in the morning, although nothing like as good as it had briefly been yesterday. There was no problem getting her to the hospice.

Iona came over at mid-day and after lunch we went round nurseries looking at fence panels for her. We collected Isobel from the hospice where she had a quite day I understand. Iona went home at about 4pm.

Isobel had lasagne for dinner, followed by two helpings of chocolate pudding washed down with half a glass of red wine. Later she had garlic bread and another half glass of wine. During the afternoon and evening it was very difficult to understand what she was talking about. She did not seem too tired although balance continued to be very poor.
