Intro: Mom fell (90) being the stoic person she is didn't let me know until late afternoon. Next morning had her at the DR...Xtras galore. Visit next morning Saturday, her leg was twice the size and not right. Isn't it a amazing that we don't necesarrary know whwt 's wrong but we know things aren't right. PLEASE EVERYONE TRUST YOUR INSTATICS
Mike, an after thought.. My Mom is from BellsHill. Not too far far from Glasgow. PC
OOOOHHHH Mike, I know you can't hear me scream in NZ but I bet Philly can. UPDATE/ My morning started at 5 AM, call from rehab, she's uncontrollable, won't let them treat her in any manner. Convinced they drugged her, I arrived about 5:30am, followed ambulance into hospital. Spent endless hours for all the testing to be done. I know many of you know of what I speak. I'm not alone. It still SUCKS. OK Good News. Her leg has an infection, due to her age of 90 it has affected the brain causing the dilusons. I'm breathing. I'm aging through this. Before I get too old and crazy any of you wanna go out on a date. PC
I posted Thursday, but the fall happenned the Thursday before. She is now in a rehab place. This has been quite the ordeal. I'm not having a pity party here but I must say anyone in my own age group of gripping 60 I know you know what I'm talking about. MID LIFE CRISIS Don't get me wrong my mother is very vital, stoic, can out walk any of us. The genes are incredible, her sister was 102 when she died last year. I have too many bad habits , if I make to 80 I'll be happy, if not I'm still happy , I've had a great time, I have expanded my horizons, didn't accomplish anything worth mentioning but enjoyed myself and others. BUT reality sets in. My MOM has a problem. I am the problem solver. Sounds nice to most but not to the people I have had to deal with. I might be the talk about town...BITCH. I will carry that honor highly. I have had to deal with the rehab people that are use to everyone saying OK and then there is me , they wanted me to sign an "Arbitrator Clause" to avoid court costs "I don't think so" "When that happens , we'll talk", "I haven't even seen your facility yet" "My Mom was just brought in , Haven't seen her yet" "Haven't spoken with a therapist"Oh I could go on and on. THANKS FOR LETTING ME BITCH
We, as humans, do not listen to either our bodies nor our instincts as much as we should. Our mind was given to us by our Creator with intuitiveness to feel certain ways when things are not right. Listen to your body and mind as they tell you when things are not normal.
