My mum has just been rushed into hospital

She had a bad headache, wanted to be sick and seemed confused/weak. She's not well in general but I've never seen her look so bad. She's been positive with Covid too so came to stay with me so I could keep an eye on her.

I'm fucking terrified. Have to wait for a couple of hours before I can ring the hospital and I'm just numb. My dad is no help. I need to tell my sister but don't want to worry her until I know something.

I don't even know why I'm posting, just need to get it out I think

Echo PP in that ITU will give her access to great 1:1 nursing and will be the best place for her.

Thoughts with you OP Thanks

OP I hope the morning brings better news. I know the anxiety of late night calls with a parent in hospital, all so much worse now that you can’t whizz straight there .
I hope you are sleeping now and that your Mum is ok.

So sorry to hear about your Mum, hope things improve. Can your sister visit or has she got covid as well?

YukoandHiro · 10/09/2021 02:22

Couldn't read and run. Hope you're getting some sleep OP. Glad she got to hospital quickly and is getting the best care. Well done you for taking on the family rep role, I know that's not easy. We're all here for you if you need to talk.
Hopefully some good news in the morning - or at least some clarity on how she's doing xxx

Nat6999 · 10/09/2021 03:58

My mum had something very similar, collapsed had a seizure at home, we dialed 999, she was admitted thinking it was a stroke but it turned out to be an irregular heartbeat, they implanted a loop recorder & put her on Betablockers, she is OK now touch wood, was in hospital a few days, she is 83. We thought that was going to be the end for her, ds did all the right things, put her in recovery position & rang 999, like your mum she was confused & dazed but was totally different 2 days later. Hope your mum is OK x
