My mum has been in hospital for a week now and is still v v poorly. No sign of being discharged. We visit every day, twice a day, but noticed that a couple of ladies on her ward have had no visitors at all. One lady had been there a month with no visitors. I thought she was out of it but she started chatting was coherent and said she has two daughters and a son who is married. Where are they??? She needed slippers but no one brought her any so staff put towels on her feet. It's so sad. Another woman was wailing and seemed in distress. We put the TV on and she knew all the answers on The Chase so clearly all there mentally. Why do people not visit their poorly families? Apart from child sex abuse what could their mothers have done to make their grown up kids abandon them like this? I'm from Asian family so it's inconceivable to me and I hope I don't sound awful but this breaks my heart. Can anyone please explain?
