Parents, sheesh....
They're all the bloody same...
My dad had a stroke a month back.
First I knew when when I had a phone call from my brother, just returned from Germany on the Friday. He'd had the stroke on the Tuesday.
He'd made my mum promise "not to worry the boys with it" so she'd been sat on her own for 3 days with no way of getting down to see him or into town for fresh supplies....
I must admit I went ballistic....
And made the point of visiting them both then and every weekend since (just about) even though it's a 450 mile round trip and he says not to bother, he's OK...
