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.

Morning Amy ♥

Don't stop talking about your Mum to the children, even if they don't remember their Nan your impression and relayed stories of the joy, love and happiness shared with her will remain in their memories for ever. Keep reminding them of your Mum's quirky little things she done or said, those type things you and your Mum shared and laughed about over the years. Those things stay in children's memories because they are fascinated by the things shared with them by their parents.

Very good post rooster. I agree totally. Your memories will become their's Amy - a family memory that they (& you) in turn will share with their own kids.

Mum has to go in for surgery on Wednesday.
Her feeding tube has broken.
Luckily dad noticed the food leaking out around the hole that the tube has going into Mums stomach.
She was taken to Dubbo base hospital but they cant fit her in till Wednesday so they did a patch up job on the tube and sent her back to the nursing home.
I dont know much else.
Dont know if she has to be completely knocked out for the surgery.


Maybe she wont make it through the procedure.

Sometimes, there are worse things then death 😞

Oh Amy, you poor love, my heart breaks for you
I really do not know what to say except that you and your Mum are always in my prayers.
I quite often light a candle for your Mum as I did when I went to church at Easter.
I wish I knew the words to help lighten the load you are carrying
God bless you and yours my dear!
