My Mums update thread

[daydream**believer]

This thread is dedicated to my Mother and her recovery.




On Monday the 4th June 2007, while holidaying in the UK with my Father, my Mother was struck by a van while crossing the road.

Mum spent 88 days in various UK hospitals before finally being brought home back to Australia on the 30th August 2007.

She is currently in The John Whittle Nursing Facility with brain damage

I have set up this thread to keep you all updated on her condition and her improvements and hopefully one day, Mum will be able to read it.

I am a bit of a lurker on this thread. Amy, I'm so sorry things have not improved as far as your mums condition goes.
I can completely understand when you say you want it to end soon.
I guess it boils down to quality of life, and right now she doesn't appear to have much quality at all.

Big big hugs to you during this very difficult time. You have been amazingly strong throughout the past couple of years Amy............be proud of that.

((Amy)) Thinking of you and totally understanding what you are feeling. I went through similar with my own mum.

As someone else said it comes down to Quality of Life, not Quantity.

Oh Amy what a difficult two years you have had. I haven't been here for six months or more and have just read the thread updates on your mum's condition.

I'm so sad for you that your mum's initial improvements didn't continue ... I was so hopeful for your mum .... and for your whole family.

I can't imagine how you feel but I think if I were in your shoes I too would be wanting the end to come if it were my mum. I hope you never feel guilty for wanting your mum to peacefully drift away.

Remember your mum as she is in the pic in your opening post - that is such a wonderful and happy photo :-x ... your mum is in your heart even if she isn't on the other end of the phone when you are speaking to her.

I wish you all the best and just hope most of all that you can be happy again soon. I don't know if I am going to continue visiting the boards and therefore don't know when I might visit this thread again ... but (although we don't know each other) I do think of you and wonder how your mum is going :-x

Take care - I'll be thinking of you 🙂

Last time i spoke to dad on Sat night, he said Mum was still sick and still on oxygen.
I dont get to talk to him again till Thursday night, due to me working at nights.
