I may have to wait to drive up to Belfast until Saturday as there's a snowstorm on the way. Yup.
Hawk had a good visit with Dad today, though. In the hospital. He got to talk with the doctor a couple of times and do some angling toward getting Dad some homecare.
Hawk was also present when a nurse came in and asked if some student nurses could practice on Dad... giving sponge baths.
"Are they young?" Dad asked.
"Yes."
"No. I don't think so."
She talked about the teaching program a little and then asked again, which for Hawk is a fail flag - he says you really shouldn't badger a patient to try to get the answer you want.
"Young girls?"
"Yes."
"Can [Hawk] take my place?"
"Sure, I'll help you out."
(sotto voice) "Save me from these women, [Hawk]!"
