[quote=Anonymous] Both my parents were hospitalized, and in rehab (at the same time), this past summer. I work full time and have a dc with SN. I stayed in the ER with each parent-both were not in their best mind then (and in fact, my mom gave the ER the wrong name when she arrived in the ambulance before I got there). Once they were admitted and stable, I came in twice a day, trying to be there when the dr rounded. I was on FMLA at that time. When they went to rehab, I went back to my job and came every evening, and daytime Sunday. I got to know the nurses, cna's and therapists. There is no way I could have stayed 24/7 with them. I have a job and dc needs me too. I did the best I could.[/quote]
