Mum has had a warble in her voice for about 8 weeks now, she says she has a frog and coughing does not clear it. She has had a chest x-ray which showed clear. She has also recently had blood test because of serious weight loss in a short period of time. Her appetite is poor although by comparison she has done well today, lightly roasted breast of chicken with mashed swede and carrot and cauliflower with some cream mashed potatoes. Blood tests came back within the norm for someone of her age (89).
Mum is going into respite on the 15th of this month, it is the first time into a care home so I am nervous but I am so tired and so much in need of some "me" time I know it is the right thing to do.
I am full of mixed emotions with all the variations that present as VD in Mum that I cannot even begin to express myself.
I am not really sure what I am asking here, I think it is whether anyone else has experienced failing voice levels in such a way as the croaky voice or whether I am having an emotional melt down tonight. Hey ho tomorrow is another day!
thank you all for listening
tonight I am yours truly confused.
