Another visit to Mackay hospital and another dose of morphine and a CT scan and we get discharged again only to have George loose his clutch, so we ambled into McDonalds and let them know what had happened and that we would be spending the night in their carpark – but no this was not to be as Tony needed to go back up the hospital – so we got to use the taxi service in Mackay. This time they kept him overnight so a rather unpleasant night was spent in a chair before he was admitted the following morning to the surgical ward. Right so that’s Tony ‘safely’ ensconced in someone else’s care now lets deal to George. Arranged to get him towed to a garaged not too far away and they checked him out and said he needed a new clutch shoe and they would do him later that day – so…. Another taxi back to the hospital to find out what was going to be happening with Tony and then another when we got a call that afternoon to say George was ready.
So about now I was feeling pretty shattered and it appeared that Tony was going to be in hospital overnight so I needed to sort a place for George and I to stay. One of the nurses recommended the Red cross emergency accommodation so I went to check it out and booked in for the night. There are 3 rooms each with their own toilet shower and then a shared kitchen lounge and laundry – within walking distance to the hospital so that was me for the night. Tony was seen by the urologist the following afternoon with appointments for blood tests, CT and xrays the following week.
