Edna has been transferred to West Heath Hospital. But she is SO confused again.
She told me she couldnt find her TV and that she had been at her flat last night looking for it.
When the nurse made it plain she couldnt keep the 30.00 she had she started protesting about all the things she would need to buy like new slippers.
There were other examples as well but a lot of them were deja vu from previous hospital stays so I wont repeat them.
She has deteriorated such a lot over the weekend. The combination of the fall, disorientation from the hospital admission and then the move, plus Tramadol makes it easy to explain - but no easier to cope with.
I already have a plan for coping for the next month, so I guess its now just a case of getting on wth it and see how things go
There are so many potential medical complications form this situation. VTE, pressure sores, another fall if she gets confused and tries to get out of bed................... but I cant do anything about any of them.
All I can do is visit, bring her treats , and do her laundry.
