Mother had a fall in the CH this morning and was taken to hospital. They have confirmed she has a broken hip and will operate in the next couple of days.
I'm worried about how she will be in the hospital. I can stay there with her but not at night. I think she will be very confused and anxious. She doesn't know me anymore so I'm not sure that my presence will calm her at all but at least I can be sure she is being looked after.
My SIL is there at the moment but I suspect we are looking at a long haul in hospital.
I know others have been through this, any tips will be gratefully received.
I wonder if this will be the beginning of the end.
