Having no alternative, I went out with the shovel before breakfast this morning and with help from daughter who arrived at 10.00, we managed to get the car up the cul-de-sac - H driving and daughter and I resorting to pushing on the worst bits as H isn't allowed to do such physical things. Before we left for the hospital M asked where I'd been all moring and when I said I'd been digging the car out to take her to the hospital, she laughed and said she expected I was glad of the exersize!
We were hours at the hospital, but they've now decided that her sight is fast diminshing due to pressure on the optic nerve - so the cateract operation was pointless. So it looks as if she will soon be completely unable to see. She's being quite philosophical about it but we've yet to consider the practicalities,
Tomorrow, I hope to finish my Christams preparations - if I can move by then, I'm already stiffening up so I'm off to soak in the bath. Hope you're having a rather more pleasant run up to Christmas!

Oh Jee how awful for you - and for M to be so callous after all your hard work too. Hope she remains philosophical about the lack of sight and that you are not more put upon in the future. Hope too that you will have a peaceful Christmas and that the soak in the bath does the trick.
