Sending mom home???????????????????

[Guest guest]

Remember the spinal tap they were gonna do on mom and the psych eval.?????

Well today we learned that they arent doing either , and are going to send her

home tonight or tomorrow.

UMMM let me get this straight , you broke her , cant fix her so are gonna just

shove her out the door?????????????????

She is STILL having the extreme diarrhea, but get this comes to find out she

wasnt even GIVEN the imodiem AD yesterday because that nurse didnt think she

needed it #$#$#@$#@.

They TIED HER TO THE BED last night , we found out because she kept trying to

get out of bed , ( she was coming home, we live 3 blocks away)

She is still mentally confused , not sure how bad as I cant go up and see her

today cause Im coming down sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JUST what I need. I cant

get sick who is going to help mom?

I called around to price bedside commodes, they range from 60,00 to 110.00.

we are going to have to have one , also the adult diapers (

How the heck can they just send her home???????????????????????????????

Ive tried calling the docs , they just give me the hospital nurse IM SO MAD I

COULD SPIT. !!

Ive called Hospice, to see if maybe the could at least point us in the direction

we need to go ( no we arent putting mom in there , but maybe they can come out

and show us what to do???

) They asked if the social worker at the hospital has been by , social worker

WHAT SOCIAL WORKER? no one has told us anything.

I just recieved a call back from American Cancer Society here in town , and they

have given me a couple numbers to call to see if these places have the toilet

and the Depends,

Got to run and call em

Thanks for listening to me ramble
