Question Everything
My mother is about to get out of the hospital after a long recovery from pneumonia. Her recovery was slow and she was just not herself. Fortunately, I was able to move her to Edmonton where I live.
On admission to the hospital new doctor said, “We do not give that med to elderly patients.” He has since moved her off that onto a med without the weakness and confusion side effects.
I am learning to question everything and accept nothing, make no assumptions.
The Role of Advocate
I am glad I was able to be my mothers advocate, I think we each need an advocate when it comes to the health care system or even working with our accountants.
