My MIL is in hospital
HI everyone, it's been quite a while since I've posted, I'm sorry. I have been reading the posts. I've had a fair number of things going on in my life, just like everyone else. One thing, my SIL called late last night to tell us DH's mom was in hospital with 2 broken wrists. Apparantly she had been doing step excercises and somehow went down wrong or something and was falling back so she put her hands out to brace her fall. She is having surgery this afternoon. DH is out of town today (close to where his mom is) so he took an overnight bag incase he needs to stay over. I think his mom will be too groggy and in too much pain to have a lot of company today or tomorrow. DH mentioned if he didn't stay then maybe we could go on Thursday and stay til Saturday. We're playing it all by ear right now. It's hard not being in the same city/town as a sick relative. At least DH's sister and brother live close. DH's other sister is in Alabama, she's apparantly going to try to come home. Also, my MIL has sisters and brothers close to where she is. We'll see how things go today and that will help us decide what to do. Again, I am sorry I haven't posted.
OUCH! She will need a caregiver until she recovers! Hope she is better soon. Welcome back!
Oh, that poor woman! I can't imagine having both of my hands in casts.
I hope she feels better soon! She has a long road ahead. She'll be in my prayers. Ame
I hope she is better soon.
