Oh no @Shaz51 what a stuff-up. It doesn't give you much confidence in that doctor or the records. I hope you can straighten it out.

I also hope your mum is now closer to home so you can visit. So many hospitals. Fingers crossed the rehab goes well.

And I hope you're OK.

Awful stuff @Shaz51

I know nothing, but is she on pain meds or something that might be affecting her cognitive abilities instead of dementia? (Obviously you know more about every part of the scenario than I do)

glad your mum is now closer to your home @Shaz51 and also that the doctor phoned and apologised to you.

Oh dear @Shaz51

That must have been a shock for you.

I am glad it all worked out in the end but it certainly didn't happen in the right way.

Hoping you can settle yourself down a bit tonight

Hugs my friend 💕💕

Me too @Snowie at the moment I ammm feeling sooo many different emotions xx

Re: Not sure what to do !!!

So glad she's closer @Shaz51 . Dad got confused and disoriented in hospital too. Just take care she wasn't prescribed a psych medication for agitation, Dad reacted badly. He came good afterwards.

Take care my friend, hope you can find something soothing tonight.

Re: Not sure what to do !!!

oh no @Shaz51 that is truly awful you must be so shocked and anxious, have you found her yet? is she ok?

hugs my friend, i hope you can rest up tonight
