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.

Oh Amy, I am sooo sorry you are going through all of this. 😞

I do hope both your Mum and Dad can find some peace soon.

Sending ((Hugs))

Love ♥ Carol

Oh, Amy, I really feel for you. It's heartbreaking when they linger unnecessarily, when there;s no chance of getting better.
My Mum was like that with her brain tumour, as was my Dad with his cancer. Letting go of life, no matter what the circumstances, seems to be hard. The pull of life is strong.

I hope that your Mum finds peace very soon.

Thinking of you, Amy.

I'm thinking of you too Amy. I can't understand it when people aren't interested in their grandchildren. My father doesn't even remember my 2 youngest's names. He doesn't even know how to spell my name. Or my birthday - nothing. And I know it's lack of interest. It's always been like that even when we were all younger. He's not stupid. It's beyond my comprehension. Hopefully he (your dad) may change but if not you have to live with it.

As to your dear Mum, I believe if you talk to her when everything is still, then she will hear you. I really do.

Oh, wait, why am I laughing?

I was just being mean coz she wouldn't shut up about Mavis, Betty and Harriet or some such carp! I also told her that they didn't use regular marbles coz they couldn't see them any more! It was not a good day!

Amy I do hope your Dad comes good, I guess your Mum will go on like this, understanding what is going on does not make it any easier to bear I know. I hope your Mum finds peace Amy.
