[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just wanted to say you are doing an amazing job advocating for your father (and on behalf of your mother). It’s tough, tiring, and can feel like whack a mole. There aren’t easy answers or answers that feel good, so you just have to trust your gut. [/quote] Thank you! I really did have to trust my gut, I just KNEW something was wrong and it wasn't 'just parkinsons'. We saw Dad today at the hospital and after only 12 hrs so far (at the time) of antibiotics, he is speaking english (not jibberish), recognized and greeted us, and even told a few coherent stories (not on topic, but that's ok lol). Thankfully, he does not remember anything of the facility. The hospital has him NPO until they do a swallow assessment tomorrow and we hope to see the case manager as well. And his nurse agreed with me that his leg wound looked fall related. I consider today to be an upswing day! And now at 6:45 I'm getting in bed LOL I am exhausted.[/quote]
