Oh my......that's too bad about your Uncle. Thank goodness he didn't lay on the floor for very long. At least he'll be in a good place and be taken well care of for awhile......hopefully long enough that you get a good rest before taking over again. Hugs!!

Oh my! Poor man! Relax a bit while he is in the hospital so that you have energy for yourself. If you get used up, you won't be any help for him anyway.

I am so very sorry all this is happening to your family.

Thank you..... I have visited him today and he is ok, but still in a lot of pain, he was told that he has a chip in pelvis and hip bone????? But he is going to ask for another x-ray.

He had some physio today, but he is a little resistant to it as he is in such pain, he is on a quite mild painkiller as stronger ones are tending to make him sick. He feels he is getting pushed into the physio, and they dont appreciate the pain he is in, i told them he has a high pain tolererance level anyway, so if he is in pain then it is BAD. He told me it is worse than when he broke his hip 2 years ago, this is much worse.

He is also not got much of an appetite, i think with some rest and if the pain eases, he will get some mobility back, he wants to be back home, but does realise it is not practical. I hope the medics etc understand he is not just wanting a little recreational holiday in bed!!!!! I will make sure they do understand.....
