Home sweet home

Now, I love the NHS, but being one of the lowest risk patients in a high dependency ward when the there are critical levels of understaffing is really difficult. Poor Nick was having to wait over an hour for morphine which meant pain management was really difficult. Luckily, with his main carer lying in bed next to him, the wait time is pretty negligible and while pain is still high, the overall levels are decreasing and we're having fewer (but still enough!) episodes where Nick is completely incapacitated by pain. Things are slowly but surely on the up!
