Guest guest Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Dear Pat: Falls and accidents are part of the Lewy Body Roller Coaster. Things never remain the same. I hope he was able to deal with the drugs and anesthesia he was given. The sitter is a great idea --never heard of them before. Good luck and God Bless you and Bob. I hope things heal fast and he is able to be mobile again. Hugs, Leona Leona: Caregiver for husband Ray, age 68, diagnosed 2/04 with Parkinson's Disease. Changed doctors, diagnosed 6/06 with LBD. Almost continual downhill slide no matter what drugs we try. 5/2/08 Ray was placed in Sunrise Nursing Home in Oswego, NY, 1 hour from home. So far, so good! Hardest thing I have ever done in my life, however. 3/19/09 transferred to Samaritan Keep NH in Watertown, NY closer to home. He passed peacefully at 5:18 am on April 14, 2009. I am handling it OK.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Hi Pat, Consider my prayers for Bob included. I am sorry about the fall, but it is part of Lousy Lewy as you know. It's nice Bob has a sitter watching over him. My husband had a few of those through some of his hospital stays and it gave me a sense of relief to know that there was someone with him watching over him after endless hours at the hospital and when I could no longer keep my eyes open. ________________________________ Hi Everyone, My Bob fell Monday morning and broke his right hip.
