Gmommys at it again

So after having a great year with pretty much no complications other than a few urinary infections, she's back in the hospital.

Today she fell and broke her right hip and arm. We got the EMT's to take her to Piedmont hospital since that's where all of her other doctors are. The doctor said that without even having an x-ray he could tell that she would need to have surgery on her hip. And that her arm was definitely broken as well. Now I don't know if that means that it was sticking out or if it's just because she's old so it's pretty positive that her bones break when she falls. She's 85! Now as much as that sucks, no one is all that worried about the actual broken bones. What we're all worried about is her being put back under anesthesia. She did not do well on it before and it has really effected her memory that she's never fully came back from. So we're worried about what it is going to do to her mind this time. Hopefully it won't do anything since it won't be that long, but who knows.

Also she's become lazy over the past few years since she was sick and everything. She got use to people doing everything for her. We really had to force her to do things for her self again, even little things like getting a glass of water! So now that she'll be unable to do things again for herself she's going to get lazy again. We also had trouble getting her up and moving before when she got home. So we'll have to go through all that again. This might end up being the end of her living at home. We knew it was coming but now that she wont be able to take care of herself and her sitter is only comes 5 days a week during the day, that wont work any more. She'll need to have someone round the clock again.

So that is what's going on with Gmommy.
