they said she was not ill, and that she would be better at home because there is a lot of infection on the wards.

Relapse
@ Thursday, Feb. 07, 2008 – 10.21:42
Some of you may recall that just before christmas my 97 year old nan was taken into hospital where she remained for several weeks before finaly going home early last month.
This morning she was discoverewd by her neighbour layoing on the kitchen floor, where she has been since she fell yesterday evening.
she was frozen, and very confused, and was taken by ambulance back into hospital.
we all tried to tell her that she was not well enough to live alone, but she was very insistant, so we backed down.
this time she will not be allowed to return home alone, and it seems the time has come that she will have to move into a nursing home as it is becoming cklear that she is in need of around the clock care.
she has not been eating again, dispite the fact that meals are delivered daily, she is not eating them, with nobody there to check up on her.
right now she is in the A and E department at the hospital, but is sure to be admitted once again.
