Hello @Owlunar xx
Mum is 85 and a half now
she has had problems over the last few years where she had a couple of blackouts, high blood pressure , she was losing weight , in pain going to the bathroom all the time
doctors did tests and could not find anything wrong with her , so she would go back home again
until Feb, when I went to drop something off for her before work , doors were still closed , so I used my keys and she was still in bed in pain and being sick
so we took her to the hospital where they kept her overnight and gave her soo much stuff for the pain , the next morning the doctor rang me to say she needs to go to a bigger hospital 60kms away , when she arrived at the bigger hospital , the doctor rang to say she needs surgery now !!!
she has obstruction of the bowel , if they don`t do surgery now , she won`t make it , so they had removed 15 inches of bowel that twisted and died , wonder why she could not eat
