Not to get into all the details right now, but my elderly mom and dad went into the hospital today, dad is ok and going home, Mom in trying to call 911 fell and, it turns out, fractured her hip in two places. Small fractures.

Really thankful it wasn't worse. Hope and pray it gets better soon. The hard part is finally trying to convince them they need more help around the house than they're seeking.

Thanks for the ear.

There very well may be help available for both you and your parents through various agencies in your area. Their Doctor or place of worship may be a good place to start. He or she may have a list of resources for seniors. Those agencies usually network with other agencies so one call is likely to open the door for you to servces that you may not know exist.

In the mean time, you and your parents will be in my thoughts and prayers.
 
Best wishes for both of them. :yes: After your Mom's home & doing better, you'll just have to give her a bit of ribbing, for stealing your Dad's attention. ;)
 
Prayers sent for a quick recovery. I know I'm gonna be fighting tooth and nail to keep my independence when I get old. :yes:
 
.....prayers for you and your parents, Shimniok....I know it's a difficult situation for you, I'm in it right now myself....rejoice in her hip being fractured instead of broken.....
 
Consider it done. I hope all goes well with your folks.
Regards,
Jim
 
Hoping for an uneventful, fast recovery for your mom and that they better understand that it is time to allow others to help them a bit more.
 
Good thoughts coming your way! It is very difficult to deal with parents as they age. I've been there. Please keep us posted.
