A Bit Of Confusion

Today at Dad's home I was sitting with him and his mate, Fred, enjoying the pleasant afternoon sunshine. One of the carers came out and handed Fred a letter. He opened it, glanced at it and gave it back to her. She said, I'll put that in the diary, Fred and off she went, leaving him with the envelope.

When she'd gone he said to me, ' It says stroke' on this envelope. I haven't had a stroke, have I?'

I tried to explain that it was a Stroke Association franking stamp but he was still very concerned. I had to go and fetch the carer who explained to him that it was an appointment for the optician.

Poor man. It really put the wind up him!

No one interested in my little story then? It's a good job I have other people to talk to.

Glad you were able to sort out the confusion for Fred, must have worried him for a while.
Only just logged in and seen your post. Must have been very upsetting for him. Glad he was put at ease quite quickly.
Tilly, they do get the wrong end of it and he will probably still worry about it. Good you were there x
Could have been worse Tills, Fred could have thought he had to have an Association. (^_*)
