Re: Not sure what to do !!!

@Shaz51  Hi Shaz51 sounds a hell of a day..... why is the physio so dead set on your mother using a stick when she is happy with the walker? Is this the same physio that wanted your mum to go to the pool?

Perhaps time to check and see if things like meals on wheels could be continued @Shaz51 

Re: Not sure what to do !!!

Sometimes I wonder @Shaz51  

 

Your mother is 88 and has a bowel obstruction for which she has had countless operations and it has been suggested she goes to a swimming pool 30 minutes drive away - and she told the physio and the person had it all "planned" - I am glad your Mum spoke up - and I don't think a swimming pool would be fun for me actually - ah woe is me - I am sorry it the plans were not going to work - truly - but that's asking a lot for an older person

 

Using a walking stick would be a harder issue - perhaps your Mum needs to speak up some more - it must be nerve-wracking watching her battle

 

We are all entitled to our opinions - and we are entitled - we even need to speak up - I can understand your Mum wanting to stick with the walker - she must be feeling safer with the mobile support with a handy seat right there. She is so independent naturally if she wants to stick with the walker being so independent she need tp say so - very hard  for her to give up I can tell

 

And you felt sick while you were cooking - my guess this isn't a symptom of pregnancy - so maybe it's your gall-bladder - or stress from all the visitors your Mum had - or something else - which you don't need

 

This is your second Mum saying take it easy - I'm glad you had time off over Easter - today it was raining - and you had custard tarts with your Mum - that sounds good

 

All the best Shaz - this is not an easy time for you and it has been going on with on-going stressors 

 

Thinking off you
