Long back story but Mil has got a place at a rehabilitation centre for 1-3 weeks following yet another fall and a hospital admission. When DH went to visit her a couple of days ago when she was still in hospital she couldn't even get herself to the toilet. She won't take her medication, doesn't eat and she drinks too much alcohol (hospital admission was based on the paramedics observation that she was intoxicated) I want to be really positive about the whole thing but to be honest I am just glad that she is safe and being cared for, if only for a few weeks. Has anyone else had experience of this? I know that the centre will be specialised in getting people back home after illness or operation but there just seems to be a mountain to climb.
