Hi
I took Mum into town this morning and whilst there she fell..for no apparent reason...bruising her nose and splitting her lip. After getting her into a shop for a sit down and a calm down she told me she had fallen earlier that morning at home in the kitchen...backwards...well, more of a slide she said.
We got her to the hospital for a check up and after various tests they told us she has a urine infection and that could cause her to fall.
This is exactly what happened to my Dad 6 months ago and we had his funeral last Wednesday....
It has left me scared and worried about leaving Mum as she is now on her own at home....but I have to work and be here for my family too.
I dont think I can face going through all this again so soon after losing Dad.
Life seems so unfair at times..not for me...but for Dad and now it seems, for Mum...Maybe it wont be the same scenario...I hope not...but all the signs are there yet again...
Just needed to type this out and know that those who read it will understand.
