as mentioned in a previous thread brought my insulin dependent aunt home yesterday with support of nurses doing twice daily insulin & carer to make sure she eats her meals. Today she has verbally abused the carer calling her a moron and throwing a stool across the room. Hence the carer is now unable to visit anymore. It will only be a matter of time until the nurses refuse to go in for the same reasons. She locked herself in her conservatory with her locked box of insulin trying to get it out. It is locked away, but I fear she may get an axe to it to get at the insulin. Carer tried giving her her tablets but she spat them out.
She will end up the giving the insulin again, giving too much, ending up unconscious and back in hospital again, this time she will not be allowed home by the doctors, I think they will do some kind of order or section. She will have to go in a home.
Is this inevitable or is there any thing else we can do.
I live in hope.
