I think you are doing the right thing Dawn, I saw my aunty in hospital before she died, both me and my sister looked round the ward and couldn't see her so went to ask a nurse. One of the patients came running after us to tell us where she was. We didn't recognise her she had changed from a lovely laughing person to a tiny bag of bones with no hair. It haunts us to this day and is something I wouldn't wish on anyone.
sending you peaceful thoughts.

Sometimes elderly people don't drink enough liquid and get disorientated too. I am glad the hospital are looking after your Nan well and she is getting her ulcers treated too. Maybe if she comes home again or is more lucid you might feel like seeing her and sharing the happier memories again with her.

Dawn, You must do what is right for you, your nan would understand if she could.
I did a silly thing many years ago when a favorite aunt was ill in hospital and I went a saw her against advice and all I see is how she was and not the good memories.
Sending PT to you and your family

Thank you.

still not heard anything Dad lives an hour away from her so expect he is there and sorting out who will look after the dog and will let me know whats happening as soon as he can.

have made the decision after dad talking to my hubby and then dad talking to me and me and hubby talking that I wont be going to see her, I havent seen her for about 4 years and they all think the shock of how she is will be too upsetting for me especially with how I feel now and I will be better off remembering her as I do as a 6ft big woman rather than the shell she is now.

I know a lot wont understand how I can do that but have to think of myself as well as my family and as dad said she wont realise I am there, spoke to her on boxing day and the next day she couldnt remember me calling and she has got worse than that.
