I just thought I would give you all an update on my mom. Sorry I haven't been on, I am trying my best to do things I enjoy but I'm just not into much but spending time with lil bear and moose.
Today has been a week since mom was put into the behavioral health ward of the hospital. This weekend was not too good. Mom had a bad migraine and the nurses aren't use to dealing with a person with such a debilitating migraine so they pretty much left her in her room. When my dad and I came to see her we found she had not eaten or had any liquid. We took care of it. Last Friday she was doing better, got a couple of smiles from her and she was a little bit grouchy. Went to visit her last night and she was doing better. She was sitting with her new roommate talking. Mom's roomate seems nice, her family put her in cause she has had bad reactions to antidepressents and wants her watched till they find one that works.
My dad talked to her Dr Mon am and the dr says she's as depressed as she was when she came, though my dad and I and the friends she has had visiting her seem to see a change. The dr said she will be there till the insurance says she has to leave or the dr says it's ok.
It's gotten a little easier but it's still hard to believe that my dad had to place her there. He is worried about me too, and wants me to start seeing a phycologist for my depression, panic and anxiety attacks. I just need to find out which Drs are covered and then I plan on making an appt. because when I was there Sun night I thought "you know if it wasn't for moose and me knowing she needs me I would probably be in here."
