Last Saturday I had to take my Mom to the hospital for a broken hip. She just turned 92 at the end of Nov. The hip bone broke basically from being so fragile and not from a true fall. Ever since, she has had one complication after another and they keep piling on. On 2 occasions already I thought I lost her. But she keeps fighting as she always did throughout her life. This has been a roller coaster ride from day one. They treat one thing but it affects other things. The pain is unbearable and I just wish I can trade places with her so badly. With the effects of dimentia on top of it all she does not understand.
What hurts so much is she trusts me so much and she keeps saying for me to stay with her. I have always been there for her and always will but this is something I can not fix. I have been praying so hard and will continue. When I lost my Dad 9 years ago I told him I would watch after Mom with all my heart and i have done that. This is tearing my heart out. Her buddy as she calls me can not help her.
I have seen the power of prayer work here so I turn to you to say a little prayer for my Mom in this time of need. Thank you all.
