Now why if I may ask is there so little action on this post?
Especially as we all will hopefully get that age one day.
This is a very well detailed post Lady Lizzy and thankfully I know all about the Tibea and the Thibea bones in the leg due to my many operations.
The brain tumour is a worry and thankfully you guys have sorted out the stairs issue with that kind gentleman.
Thankfully also mom Lily is a strong woman and as long as she uses the walking aids she will hopefully be alright. I also hate the stuff, but at times these things happen to us to prevent more serious damages.
Such is life my friend and please tell your mom that she is in our prayers.
Blessings and !BEER
Thank you so much for that my friend, and I'm sure Mom will listen to the doc from here on as she's not happy ringing that bell for attention;)
So you've also been in the wars by the sound of it!
Take care my friend.
Shame, she is so used to helping herself that ringing that bell must be a real pain.
I can understand how she feels, as I used to drag myself down a long passage to get to the toilet.
The leg will heal in some way, but she is going to feel it for a long time.
I am more worried about that thing in her brain.
All of our prayers to you and her!
The problem is the little bit of independence Mom had is now totally gone and she's not happy! We're just thankful that she's not in pain and at least she'll have to see the physiotherapist who will teach her how to walk properly with the walker. Mom's a real rebel, tried running with the walker which of course nearly sent her tumbling, so it had to be put away forthright!
Enjoy your beautiful world down in the Cape my friend.
Ah, I love your moms character my friend.
I have not yet had the chance to race with a walker, but I can do hand stands on crutches and other tricks, as I spent a long time on them.
So now you have repossesed her walker, but I am sure that she will pull some other tricks, as it keeps our active minds busy 🤣
Blessings to you guys and don't give your mom !WINE
As she might fix wheels to her bed and travel down the Main road🤣
Haha you are so funny my friend, love your sense of humour:):)
No I did not repossess it, Mom discarded it and turned it into a clothes horse. I think she walked like that on purpose as she didn't want to use it from the beginning;)
I have to be firm with her as she's trying to move from her chair to the commode on her own with only 1 good leg! Told her this morning I'm going to give her a spanking;)
Hahaha, only one answer here for mom my friend.
Go down to the police station and ask them for a set of bangles (handcuffs).
Then you cuff the good leg to the chair and voila, problem solved.
Oh, cut a hole in the chair and put the commode under the chair hahaha.
She can then sit and watch her clothes drying on her walker invention 🤣
You will also have to get a set of ear plugs so that you can't hear her irritated screams 😜
Just some sage advice here 🤣
Blessings and !WINE
Hahaha, that would be the best invention yet as my poor back doesn't want to bend anymore! Mom will enjoy that one;);)
