My mum was admitted to our local hospital at 1:30am on Saturday morning .... There was a problem with her bile duct and her blood pressure had really dropped so they decided to keep her in.
One of the nurses called me at 3:30 this afternoon to see if I would be visiting her today, I told her that I was planned to be at the hospital by 5pm but she asked me if I could get there earlier than that. Apparently my mum had ripped her IV out and had to have two nurses watch her all night because she was refusing to go to bed. Unfortunately my mum had also lashed out at these nurses and when I got there she was stood up at the nurses station with two nurses and a security guard watching over her.
I managed to get her to calm down and I've just called the hospital and she's sleeping ok for the moment but I'm dreading the phone going at any moment ..
Just venting ... Like you do
