In reply to the discussion: Mom is sick and has been in the hospital. [View all]CousinIT
(9,244 posts)8. Hoping like hell your dear Mom's issues are resolved.
At least the infection - because the hip cant be dealt with until that is gone. Wishing her the very best. AND you. You must be exhausted being there for her and advocating for her while fighting snotty hospital admin. But you got her what she needs so you are a hero! Pat yourself on the back for that! You do need some time for yourself. Let your sister be there for a bit. You cant help her best unless you take care of yourself first. Please do that. Then go back into the fray.
Wishing for a complete cure of that infection SOON.

Sending lots of good vibes for your Mom--and you. It's hard worrying about an ailing parent.
