Blackpool for Respite? YES!!!!
What a change!
The time away has done me the world of good - no offence to Coo! LOL
Mum and I shopped till we dropped, eat cream cakes, bounced on and off trams and had a date with Elvis! among others! LOL
We went to see the Rock Legends show at the Blackpool Tower Ballroom and it was
...totally brilliant!
I didn't know what to expect and I must admit, the acts were all excellent!
The Elvis guy looked mighty cute too!
So with the comfy beds, good food and bargains to be had on every corner I had a FAB time!
I guess that's why respite is so important!
I knew Coo was fine and I can totally trust Looby.
I did phone to speak to him each morning and then I could relax the rest of the day knowing he was fine.
This really meant I could have a hassle free break.
Thank God for our Direct Payment it really works so well for us!
My hope is all Carers can get a break and soon.
It's so very important.
Everyone needs a break, a chance to sleep and recharge their batteries!
Love,
