Awake at 4.30am with total panic, today should be the my mum in law has her assessment whilst in hospital ready for the move to a CH, are we doing the right thing, in hospital this week mum has been treated for a uti infection and delirium, for a few days her delirium seem to be getting better, but today she was so jumbled up, she said she was tired from all the shouting, and a man stealing her box of liqurish allsorts (I know the irony of injustice), but laying awake here with guilt of sending her into a home knowing it was her worse nightmare and she always said she would rather be dead. How do you cope with the decision, or do we just ask for a full package at home and cope till the end comes, mum is physically fit, it's when she gets frustrated and wanting to go home although is at home that causing the problem also not eating at times as it not their house, or toileting too late again people sleeping upstairs, when this happens dad calls us on his (bat) phone and we have to go up and sort her out, should we just let go home and if it escalates then move to the home.. Dad is 96, deaf, blind, and poor mobility, mum is 94 on Saturday coming the will be married 70 years in August..
