My Mums update thread

This thread is dedicated to my Mother and her recovery.

Photobucket


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.

Re: My Mums update thread

Hi, your thread is such a sweet thing to do for your mum. 🙂
She is lucky to have a caring daughter!!

My mum and I were returning home from (her work), I was about 11 at the time and was helping her at her job. We didn't have a car (being so dirt poor) and had to catch the bus to the city where her job was..and back home again. As we crossed the busy road, she got hit by a speeding car. She got thrown across the car and landed on the pavement. To my shock I ran to her as I must have crossed first and she followed behind me. And so the whole traffic stopped and a delivery guy stopped to help my mum. Ambulance came and I thought she was dead! It all happened quickly! The guy who hit her was devasted and luckily not a hit and run.... but he apologised over and over again.. In the end, my mum ended up with a clavicle surgery, hip and pelvic surgery. She was in hospital for weeks and weeks recovering. She's ok now, but she's lived it up since her accident. She reminds me that life's too precious to have regrets and so forth. I'm grateful she's still alive today and wondered a few times what life growing would be like if she wasn't around. I probably won't be where I am today to share you this story. All the best with your mother's recovery. May god be with her always 🙂
