The legal process to save Bowles Lodge is over but the spirit of Bowles Lodge lives on!

This blog is about a campaign I led to prevent Lancashire County Council closing the care home my Mum lived in. We lost our case in the High Court but decision-makers at local and national level were made aware of the devastating consequences of moving elderly people - no matter how carefully it is done. Mum was moved and, sadly, died eight months later. The blog is dedicated to her precious memory. Love you Mum.

This is Vera, my mum

Mum admitted to hospital

I get a call to say mum has been taken to the brand new hospital at Pembury with breathing difficulties. I dash from London, worried sick arriving at A&E to find mum calm, breathing normally but desperate for a coffee and a couple of biscuits. This does not feel right.

The doctor carefully examines mum and says "I find no shortness of breath... I don't know why she has been brought here".
