Just phoned the hospital and tracked Mum down in Pearson Ward at Chesterfield Royal Infirmary She’s on oxygen and going to be seen by the consultant this morning. She’s also had her third swab in 5 weeks for coronavirus. The last two were negative and she didn’t have any particular signs of Covid-19 when she was admitted (no temperature or cough) so fingers crossed.
No visitors are allowed at the hospital, but I found this #letteroflove service if anyone would like to send her a message. The information you’ll need is her ward, Pearson Ward and her date of birth, which is 12/12/1931. I wish I’d known about it before. https://www.chesterfieldroyal.nhs.uk/our-charity/letteroflove.
Finally managed to get through to speak to a staff nurse, who relayed a message that Mum was dozing, had eaten and was comfortable. I’ll phone again tomorrow for more news.
2022 and all that
