Yeah, the hospital calls after the ambulance gets her to the hospital. They called my uncle, who replied that my dad dealth with her, and hung up on them. And then my dad would come down and talk to the doctors and get her out of the hospital and was her bedding and other laundry and get groceries. She apparently busted her tailbone and there's nothing the docs can do but give her pain meds, but every time the pain gets too much, she bangs for the ambulance, even if she has a relevant doctors appointment the next day.
She's fainted twice due to dehydration, so not taking care of herself. The washer and dryer are in the basement, and she's not been going down there. The house hasn't been vacuumed or dusted in months. The tell for me is that my dad has no sense of smell and even he claims that the house is stinky.
I don't know all the deets of why my dad has to go down every time, other than her medicare running out if the hospital decides to keep her longer when they have no idea why she's there or have no means to aid her. Even getting her into a rehab for her tailbone will take time.
But, if she pulls something again, where my dad feels that he has to come down to intervene, should I offer myself to go over, where I'd have a 3 hour roundtrip, as opposed to a twelve hour round trip.
