Title: Mom took a fall / update
Post by: ron w on March 20, 2014, 03:36:00 PM
On Tuesday my mother [89 years old] took a fall down the cellar stairs. It's amazing but nothing is broken, she looks like she went 10 rounds with the champ. She has been in ICU for 2 days but seems to be doing better.  Please keep us in your thoughts and I know we will get thru this.......   :pray:   Thanks so much. Mom has been in re-hab since the fall and is doing better. She has decided that at almost 90 she can't live alone. She has now moved to an assisted living home and is under watchful care 24/7. Thanks all your prayers and thoughts.......ron w

Dealing with aged parents is a trial, sure enough.

Prayers for her continued healing, renewed will to carry on (big part) and for you guys to accept God's will and hers for how much she wants to push to get back to where she was.

Tough to watch.  Been there, done that.

PRayers for all.

Keep the Son in your eyes!

Aging parents can wear on us more than kids! My heart goes out to you and your family as you sit feeling that sense of helplessness. Know it well and intimately.

Prayers for healing, strength and God's will for your Mother and family...

Keep the Son in your eyes!

Glad your "assisted living" is that positive up there or where she is...looked into it here for my Dad after Mom passed in 04' and it was a joke!

No assistance with bathing, dressing or anything else...just check they were still sitting up and "took" their meds...

And for the $$, I wasn't sure where the definition of "assist" came into play!

Glad she made that decision and best of luck to her and your family thru this time of transition!

Mom is going through a rough patch, congestive heart failure......but she pulled thru and is head pack to assisted living today. Those old folks are tough bunch.........

Indeed, tough is an operative word...

Just be prepared...I found when the trial exceeded my dad's desire to keep fighting he just "quit" and it was over in a day!

Not to rain on yer parade, but tough only lasts as long as the will is willing.  God knows when, we don't!

Keep the Son in your eyes regardless!
