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.

Its looking like Mum is going to be moved back to the nursing home today or tomorrow. This is not saying that she is better though. I get the feeling it is more due to the hospital not being able to do anything more for her

o i thought i'd try and start to write a eulogy for my Mum.
Yes, i know she hasnt gone yet, but i figure im in a better frame of mind now to do it rather then try later.
But, i cant remember good times from our past, even though i know we had so many.
I rang my sister and talked to her about it and she is the same. She thinks all the good times have been over taken by the last 5 years of horrible times

im hoping that will be tha case lyndal.
loveliveshere- yeh, im gonna get some photo albums out.
Mum is back in the nursing home but things are not good. She is vomitting a lot apparently.
Plus, the suction machine at the nursing home has broken and dad is going off his head about it
So Dad rang last night, told me about Mum and then adds "So ive won some things on ebay i need you to pay for"
So i guess i didnt need to apologise for him to start buying again. Lucky me.
It looks our arguement has been forgotten (by him) and all will be the same as it was before.
He also is pretty sure Mum is gonna get better all by herself, cause remember, according to dad, Mum is in total control of her body and will only die when she wants to.
Me, well i still hole hopes that i get a phone call soon telling me she passed away peacefully in her sleep.
Im angry again. Peed off at the world and the rubbish that it has dealt my family. Im trying so hard not to let my anger affect my family. Its hard. Im exhausted from lack of sleep cause my brain just wont turn off. Even lying in bed, i feel anger and tense.
