Made an error tonight.

What? What have you done now, Brian?? :naughty:
Guess it's the pot calling the kettle black however. Made another error with Evie. All of us - 6 family members total - went to visit her in hospital simultaneously. Two of my boys were there, one just came off being deployed, and they were quite rowdy. Should have realized it would be too much for her. Really I was an idiot for permitting the whole affair.
I am getting quite astute at reading her. Within 5 minutes of the crowd showing up, the look on her face said "I want to run". She was near tears and angry too. Tried to talk to her, but no use. I left, worrying she was going to have one of her episodes. Hoped she would ring me later to talk, but she didn't. However. I called the hospital just now and they say she's sleeping peacefully, no problems. Perhaps I will go there tomorrow - alone - and speak with her about it.
Do feel rather badly. Could have prevented this easily. We are still enjoying our break, but I do feel guilty, for a different reason this time round. Perhaps because I should have known better. Suppose this is a continuous learning process. Jods you were certainly on the mark with your "mixed bag of emotions" comment.
Jim.
