Anya - RE: infused and tinctures how to Formulas

[Guest guest]

Dear Anya,

Have you posted your information on " how to do " your tinctures and

formulas? If so could I get you to send me the information? My Mother has

been in the hospital all week and my lovely dh has managed to loose about 80

% of my email. So I am finally getting to read email and play catch-up

tonight. My Mother recently " fell " (that is what we think happened) and

fractured two vertabrae (T12 & L1). Last Friday she couldn't get out of bed

and on Monday she fell trying to get up and go to the potty. At that point

we thought that she had broken her hip so off to the hospital we went

expecting the worst. The doctor took x-rays and did a MRI and found the two

crushed vertabae and suggested surgery. Meantime, this 88 year old

lady/child is talking to the air and trying to get out of bed. We had to put

her in restraints. Was she ever MAD! I caught the " Go to He--! " several

times from her. She decided that she just wasn't going to stay in the

hospital or restraints. On Tuesday at lunch, I walked in to finish feeding

her and I noticed her knife was gone so I figured that the nurse had taken

it away for safety. Wrong! Mom had " stolen " & hidden the knife to do her

thing. As I turned around I caught her doing something but couldn't quite

see what. Well, she was attempting to " saw " her restraint straps. Then as I

was turning back around she tried to hide the knife again. Then as I turned

again I saw that she was " sawing " away at her straps. So I took the knife

away. Needless to say she was extremely mad at me. Then she tried to get me

to give her a pair of scissors. I said no. Then after a while she said that

she was cold and would I get her gown so that she could get out of this cold

jacket that she was wearing. I thought that the nurses really had their

hands full when I was gone but we had to keep her from moving or she could

have been paralyzed from the waist down for the rest of her life. We had

explained why she had to be restrained but this old lady was not buying it.

Well, tonight the doctor did surgery which was a success. Tomorrow, keeping

our fingers crossed, hopefully, she will be moved to rehab for a few weeks

and then home.

So, Anya, again thank you for sending me the information if you have

already posted it.

Recovering from having to deal with a very smart, crafty, 88 year

old mom with advanced Osteophorsis that caused deterioration of the spine.

Please do whatever it takes to keep your back healthy now while you are

young and have the opportunity so this won't happen ever to you or anyone

that you know. P.S. I am looking forward to her coming home and giving me

what-for! ;-D I hope that someone keeps good care of me and you when we are

this age.
