Hi:
Update on my mother she fell again this is the second time we know of and I've been told once older people start falling it continues. This time she called 911 and went to the hosptial. I left work earlier and I was the only one there on Thursday. There're two other sisters and how in the world can leave your mom alone in the hospital. Thank heaven she didn't break anything. Her doctor's assitant came to see her and I asked if we can get some tests done. Also, for the psychiatrist to see her as she has depression. Well, we did get a Cat scan and Ultasound for her stomach. Neither test showed anything. No psychiastist yet and they weren't given her the depression medicine. So, that starts from strach. The social worker called me to tell me mom will go the rehab there at the hospital for a week. Unless she doesn't progress than they'll send to a nursing home for rehab. I didn't see her yesterday and I'll today.
Last night I called my younger sister to see what was happening with mom. She chewed me out as my sister and I she feels we aren't helping her with mom. I was upset (I was going to use another word) as I feel all of are taking care of her. My middle sister and I went to N.J. this summer and she watched mom. So, she brought that up. At that time mom was doing better. Now my boyfriend paid my middle sister and I to come to see him in Flordia. Everything is arranged for the trip airplane tickets are bought etc. Last night my younger sister ordered me that Ilene (my other sister) and I can't go anywhere together anymore. As it's too much on her. There's nothing I can do that mom is the hospital now and I'm not cancelling the trip. But I did mess up about being there today and tommorow. As I'd plans for both days (weekend) but I'll change them. I know we're all stress about mom but give me a break.
Personally I don't think she'll come home that there will have to be choices to make. Hire the nurse full time, move her in with me or assitant living.
Thanks for letting me vent.
The Big bad woolf I hope your mom gets better. And ENJOY your trip to Florida. I know I would.Vent Away, and I hope things improve with your Mother. Hang in There.
I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. I hope the situation improves. Take care.Sorry things are not going well for you right now. I think unfourtantely aging parents and medical decisions tend to bring the worst out in people. I hope your mom gets better and your younger sister realizes all you are doing behind the scenes and understands that you are trying to do what is best for your mom.
