I'm on holiday at the moment, having a much needed break with my fiancee in Cincinnati ...My mum went into respite on the 13th and I got this message from a close friend of mine today. :-
"Just had a phone call from Seddon court (respite) to say that your mum was transferred to Stewart assessment unit yesterday.
Apparently she had become very aggressive and disruptive again . She was also refusing to take her medication.
The gp was unable to help as she wouldn't calm down or take anything to help her .
Dr Theophanus has admitted her to Stewart assessment .
I have tried to phone them but they are busy at the moment . I will try again later.
The staff at Seddon court ( Karen ) said they had seen a very big mental deterioration in your mum this time."
I feel like I've let my mum down, I should be with her at this time ..... My fiancee and my friends have told me to carry on with my holiday because there's nohing I can do for her at the moment and that I need to rest because I'll have to be strong when I get home ..... I know what they're saying but I just don't know qhat to do ...
