Didn't have a very good day yesterday, started out okay just doing a few errands etc before speaking with my friend the physiologist which went pretty well she gave me some good advice and has offered to support me in anyway that she can, so it's nice to have another trusted person in my circle.
Unfortunately that's the high point for the day, yesterday evening I received a frantic message from one of my sisters telling me that she couldn't get onto mum as the phone just kept ringing out.
We contacted Teltsra to check the phone line for a fault but there wasn't one.
So my other sister went around to mum's at about 6. 00pm to find mum on the bathroom floor, she had been there for 12 hours.
So an ambulance was called plus the fire brigade to assist with getting her to hospital.
All of the emergency response people were amazing with mum and were so professional.
So long story short she had all of the test done and fortunately there were no serious injuries so they are keeping her for a couple of days to make sure she's okay to return home.
The most important thing is that she's okay.
The one thing that we made mum get when dad died was care alert smart dialer for this type of situation.
Mum had it with her but didn't want to press the button because she didn't want to cause us any problems as we would have been at work. She thought she was able to get up on her own.
So as the saying goes when it rains it pours that's now two major events 1 being me coming out and 2 mum's accident so god only knows what the third one will be.
I am so exhausted right now as I didn't get to bed until 1.30am and am all alone again with no one to talk with.
I was due back at work today but just couldn't face it just to emotionally drained to have to face work but am planning on going back tomorrow.
So I am going to push back the discussion with my mother for awhile until she has fully recovered as I don't want to make her have to deal with my issues right now.
