After a very unfortunate and tragic incident with friends, I found it today no longer easy for me of what happened at the end of the "early stage" - the end of the independence - to distract the illness of my Ma .. .
It was a Saturday afternoon In June 2009, my Ma was always on Saturdays visit of her friend. They knew each other since the late 80s, when my Ma in "yarn shop" began as a shop assistant, and spent many years together with stoic regularity Saturdays.
Actually for me one afternoon to sit back, Ursel also did like a couple of nursing activities that I would have to make dinner.
Suddenly afternoon a call, the short version: Come crashed into the hospital, the mother. So on - it was not my favorite pastime, myself in for hours rumzudrücken hospital, but at the time of the often necessary. Finally, I was the only one that could enable a complete understanding with the doctors, including a possible increased upper body storage or no hyperextension of the head during X-ray. Could not even know what they want when they suddenly howls.
The Story of Ursel consulted first:
She rang, waited patiently and was surprised that the usual slow shuffle towards the door did not hear and wanted to go again. At the last moment she noticed a faint whimper. They led the ground floor the porter, that the caretaker will open the door. When she finally at home were, my Ma was in there half and half on the balcony. The threshold was very high and very sharp. Ma also had an old tea trolley with flowers on her small balcony, one of the bottom edge, she was beaten to the head and a large pool of blood soaked the carpet balcony. She was lying face down on the floor and could not move.
They had been two hours, as she wrote later. She wanted to acknowledge even the garbage bag on the balcony, but she had the balcony door, which was received is not always slow, fixed as usual, so this was her a push, and even she could not keep ...
If Winter and summer would have been, they would perhaps frozen.
If her friend had gone, she would have lain there till evening So, until the nursing service would come to 18 clock.
hardly imagine!
The ordered emergency system would have benefited her in this case nothing, because they could not get their arms together under the body to press the button on the wrist.
In the hospital I was always there, if only because she needed her personal assistant for communications and protocols, etc. The nurses were always overwhelmed when she and my mother had to do, she could not say anything and directed. Even a simple toilet grew from an impossibility. Nothing worked, was always my help and guidance needed. This time she had to stay overnight. It would indeed have a concussion can. However, I went home at night, because I had nothing to do next.
The upshot was that the legs had suffered severely from the hours of disconnection of the nerves in the pelvic area, so I applied for the hereafter care level 2 and for the first time two weeks respite care through the nursing service. Despite the respite care every day I was still working a few hours, there was always to do something, but I was able to calmly take familiar with what was coming after me ...

It can be over so fast, that is a back on days out so clearly in mind.
Also in 2004, when the atrial fibrillation should be my husband with a Elektrokardioversion under anesthesia again, "set right", it would have for him for probably incorrect assessments of the doctors may be over. He had swallowed too long in the anesthesia, the tongue, steamed up black and blue, the tube could only be introduced very difficult - the doctors were happy afterwards honestly that he was back.
