Synagogue
Monday finished at 2 and to hospital and Dennis still with us. Grandma much brighter. Alison her neighbour came to see her and gave useful advice about care homes. We also saw the consultant and Dennis spoke to the psychiatrist. I went to Catenians and Liz went to hospital and on to Bow to collect the Z bed for Claire.
Good meeting. Tuesday worked till 8 - sorted out game plan on new system (still not working right), staff meeting. Reading group lively and discussed Goodman's Intuition - equally divided between those who liked and those who could not finish it. Ruth had picked up some interesting nuances in the book I had missed.
Wednesday to Croydon NHS and helpful chat to doctor. My right ankle still bothering me - strange itch under skin. Home and then to Liberal Jewish synagogue St John's Wood. Rabbi Mark gave us a full tour and we saw the Torah scroll - the bar mitzvah boy's achievement is amazing - no vowels and no cantillations. Mark sang beautifully for us and also at the Holocaust memorial by Amish Kapoor. Patricia was being a pain again but he was very patient. Back to Coulsdon to see Vickie and music for September. Change is afoot with family service once a month (a Eucharist) and evensong under threat. Choir meeting Sept 3. To hospital - Grandma asleep most of the time so read "Meeting God in friend and stranger".
