Hey all, first off prayer's appreciated for my mom. She is 93 and was found unresponsive last week in her vehicle. She drove from Montpelier to Muncie to get 2 cortisone shots in her back. Yes she is independent.. so on the way thru Hartford she pulls over to the bank to take care of some business, my sister is with her but sis is special needs and does not do well with situations but she found mom passed out and goes in calmly and gets help.
Mom is taken via ambulance to the ER and sent to IU-Ball in Muncie. She was doing well and became un responsive again, pretty much do to the fact she was give hydrocodone and Percocet which she is allergic to. Out for 2 days and we were finally able to get her to respond and finally eat yesterday.
We in the family feel blessed that passed out while setting and that she woke up and was able to eat answer some questions. Her vitals are strong, no stroke or a UTI, heart, kidneys and liver all doing there job and well for a 93 year old.
So after that long intro.. need to pull the keys just do to the fact her mindset and reaction time has suffered and its just a matter of time before something else bad happens. I know its hard on her and wondered how many fellow INGOer's have went down this path?? And any advice.. Thank, Tim
