Re: Isolation from Hospital Visits?
Ted, I am so sorry to hear of your poor DIL's problems, poor girl.The seriousness of her health is worry enough, but to be isolated from family and loved ones as well is really sad.
I can only wish you all well, and hope she gets well enough to come home again real soon. x

This is exactly why this forum is so good, in my opinion.
People care.

If she gets home for Christmas, I might have to do something daft, outside her house, on the big day.
Maybe make myself a Santa suit?

One thing many people don't realise is anyone who is lonely and in despair can ring the Samaritans, you don't have to be suicidal but they will ask 'the question ' as part of the conversation.
The maxim of the 'Sams' is 'Come quietly into my world and let me be ' and that applies to anyone who feels alone and in need of a bit of support.
My Daughter in laws father collapsed last Saturday night , he broke his arm and cut his head quite badly he was taken to hospital by ambulance . There was no one to operate on his arm till Monday and he also had to have tests to try to find why he collapsed.
He is still in there, doesn't answer his phone and information is hard to get hold of and of course no one can visit including his wife. It is all very frustrating.
Wishing your DIL well and I hope she is home soon.
Meg, I can hardly believe the poor man went in on Saturday and yet no one was available to operate until the Monday!!
Was it the surgeons's weekend off? Surely they don't only have one surgeon! Why is he not answering his phone do you think, could it have run out of charge and he doesn't realise, or is he depressed and doesn't want to talk maybe?
What a worry for all concerned. I sincerely hope things improve quickly now. x

I would not accept a wait like that for my dog I am afraid that is the standard from our local hospital these days and why I prefer to stay at home when ill unless it is a last resort. I understand the phone is charged and he has a charger with him. He may be depressed or he may be sedated for the pain .
Ironically my DILs father was a Charge Nurse, a male ward sister in the same hospital before he retired and not one to
take any 'nonsense' lightly.

Re: Isolation from Hospital Visits?
it is such an emotional time, I can't imagine all that your family has gone through. Speaking positively, your DIL came through all critical issues and hopefully will be home soon. Just that alone is a reason to celebrate.Best of luck to you and the entire family. I think the Santa suit idea is wonderful.
