As we enter into the third day of the Dragon year, the miracle that I hoped for did not happen. At around 11 p.m. on the 3rd of February, my mum had a fall and hit her head against the wall. She had to have a few stitches to close the gash and as I am writing this, my mum is still in hospital. The reason she fell was because her sugar level dipped to 2.4. This caused her to feel faint. The doctor is keeping her in the hospital for observation as her sugar level has not stabilized. Hopefully, she will be discharged tomorrow so that I can bring her to the psychiatrist on the advice of her specialist.
The unfortunate thing is that my mum seems to be getting more and more demented after Lup Chun day instead of becoming better. Though it pains the two of us, my sister and I have made the decision to put her in a nursing home for the elderly as we are at our wit's end. My blood pressure has shot to the ceiling and my sister and her family are very depressed. So, Mrs Cheah has to be sent to the 'Senior Citizen's Hostel' for her own good. Like boarders in the hostel, she only gets to go home during the weekends and holidays.
