Hi
Yesterday evening we took mum out for dinner- getting back into the car Mum could not grasp that she needed to put her bottom in first and "swivel" and as a result of this fell onto the ground. Ian managed to get her up on the second attempt- like lifting a dead weight as no help from mum and her arthritic knees!
Back at home I filled out an accident form and the deputy manager was going to check mum out before bed and bring forward her bath night from Wednesday to Monday(to check for bruising)
Rang this morning at 8.40 am and Mum still not down for breakfast- Nurse goes up and mum says she is a bit stiff as a result of all the walking she did yesterday
No recollection of the fall whatsoever- who knows how many falls she has no recollection of???
Thankfully nothing broken this time
Love Julie xx
