62459Oh, bless her heart. And how lucky you are to still have your mother with you. My mother passed 12 days before her 97th b'day. She had fallen a few years prior and had to have the surgery, and actually did well with that, but it was Alzheimer's that took her from us. So glad that you got to be there with her.
44813Just prayed for yo' mom and for you katydid. I do hope everything goes as well as the surgery. Just love on her and enjoy every day, story , and hugs. What a blessing.

2360My husbands 91 year old Graandfather fell the same day and broke his hip. We can pray for them together. He too is a real fighter and a blessing to us all. Keep us posted.

3345158029Oh dear Katy, the magic word "she is a fighter" They will or should have her up today or tomorrow. Make sure they keep her turned at least every 2 hrs. Me I would do it every hr. She'll probably b walking again with support within the week, especially since they did not put her to sleep. Prayers r with u & her. sounds to me like u have an excellent surgeon. Wonder if Knoxville is where MM is having her test, I believe that would b the closest hosps. to her. If u can check.

Lillian, I wish you were here to give the orders.I felt they took advantage of us because we were in her room with her.
145789Kay, you poor dear. I'm so sorry. It is so hard to see our mothers who have been strong and OUR caretakers go in the other direction..What a blessing to her you must be. I know you are tired, hopefully you will get to rest now. Prayers for strength. Love,Jerrilyn

Mag google let me down. I40 is all messed up. My sister tried to tell me, but I thought she was exsagerating!!
158553Katy, enjoy this time with her, talk to her and tell her how much you love her...even if she is sleeping. God will wath over you and keep you in his loving arms as HE has me this past week. Know that you are loved:)
31942Poor baby, so sorry to hear about your mom. I know my mom was an R.N. while alive and she used to say it was hard to tell which happened first, the fall or the break. Those poor old bones sometimes just let go. A dear friend of mine stood up, had a stroke and BAM hit the floor hard. She's only 83, so bless your mom's heart. Be sure you get some rest before you try to drive very far, you can't help your mom if you're in the bed next to her! Best wishes for a speedy recovery and a long bright future.
17161Wow!!! Katy, your Mum has reached a lovely age, and here's hoping that she has a speedy recovery, the dear Lady!!
15218what a blessing to have a daughter such as you to have watch over her...I pray she has a quick recovery...
34246Kay, dear one - what a trouper she is - isn't she - I know why you are worried and know that all you can do is be there - while you can - help calm her and let her know that you all are with her - more than anything she needs to know that you love her and that you will be there for her and allow her to let you know what she needs to assist her. My prayers for you and your family for acceptance of God's will for her. Unconditional Love, Shirlene

211078I'm trying so hard to stay awake. Every 2 hrs, her pain shot wares of and she starts thrashing around and I'm afraid she will pull everything loose. When she is at her home, my sister has caretaker all night with her.
85867Kay, I wish your Mother all the best in recovery. It was lovely that you could be by her side upon her return to her room after surgery.
You are in my thoughts and prayers....

Charlene, on my way up here, I was thinking that she would never come home, but now I am hopeful. my sister was up all night and she is asleep. I'm afraid if i go to sleep she Will pull her catheter out and all the wires on her chest and try to get up. I would have felt better if she had been placed in intensive care. After I drove all day, I am very tired. I came across the mountain I 40 with the afternoon sun in my eyes and wall to wall truckers, then I got lost here in Knoxville. Probably been 20 years since I have been to this hospital.
