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.

I can understand that Amy. Personally I would be very upset that she wasn't going to die now peacefully.

She has gone through enough and it should be her time.

My Mums update thread

Hi Amy, I've never read this thread at all, even tho we chat a bit on the other thread - I had absolutely no idea & it was so long (the thread) that I imagined it would be something entirely different - I've just sat & read the entire thread & I'm gobsmacked that you are so "normal" on the other thread while you are going thru this incredibly traumatic time. I think you've done a Super-job of balancing this terrible ongoing trauma with the daily life I know you lead.
I have a lot of respect for you.
I hope your mum finds her peace soon. Whatever her condition my hope is that she is not suffering as much as it looks like. With the brain injury it's quite possible she's not.
At some stage you will need professional counselling to sort everything out in your head. Right now it's all been just jammed in willy-nilly & it will need to be all put into its proper place. It will be very valuable for you & you'll be able to go at your own pace.
I'll be following this thread now.
I'm not "huggy" but *hugs*

hi witchy and thanks for your kind words.

I guess this part of my life has been going on for so long that i am able to put on a face of coping. And i think i am coping ok, most of the time. But there are times when i still break down.
But i keep all that to myself now. I dont let my family or friends see that
