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.

dad and my sister were called up to mum at 2am.
She was hardly breathing.
She is on full oxygen now.
They say her lungs are giving out. The 3 pneumonias she had while in England would of damaged her lungs terribly and it looks like they may of had enough.
They tried to get her moved to Dubbo Base hospital but there was only one doctor on duty and he said he was to busy.
I rang the nursing home to talk to dad. I asked him how far he was going to go to keep mum going. He said he has signed a DNR and he wont let them put any tubes into her.
He says he will allow the oxygen mask but that is all.
I then rang my MIL. She is going to go up and see Mum and see if dad wants to have a break while she sits Mum.
