It has been difficult hearing about my Mom's discomfort and not being able to provide any respite or relief for her or my sister. After an extremely long week, Friday has finally arrived. I'm packing a bag for the weekend and I'm heading to my Mom's house directly after work. I'm looking forward to giving her a huge (albeit in gentle and strategically placed) hug.
Yesterday she went for another scan, although we won't have the results until Tuesday. It has been difficult for her to maneuver around the house without the use of her leg. I'm really hoping that the doctor's will deem her break worthy of a walking cast instead of full traction. Of course it all depends upon the depth of the break and the proximity to her knee replacement. Until we know, she is to remain as still as possible.
Spoiler alert. She's miserable. I don't blame her at all. Hopefully spending a few days with her will prove to be a distraction. At this point, there is nothing else I can really do.
