hi rachel i dont care for anyone in your sisters condition but i do care for my mum who has a bad back and her botom disk(witch is to keep the spines rubbing against eachother) has disolved and she has to have epadurles witch only one worked on her once, in october she had to have a magure operation so she was took into hospital for half a week and the doctors cut through her tummy to have a replacement disk in. they stiched her back up and gave her lots of TLC but mum said the dinners were HORRIBLE!!!! she came back and her leg was realy numb and we found out that they had dameged a nerve now my mum has shooting pains down her left leg....
.....she is on strong medacation and has carers come in the mornins 2 dress and feed my bro in the mornins and take him 2 play group and she has 2 pick my bro up after school. my nanna who dameged her hip comes to help with my bro and me and on saturdays another carer witch sometimes dont show up comes to help play with my bro till 11 or ten o'clock! sounds like you have to help at home alot rachel and i feel sorry for you.....
.......try to help your mum and sis alot but at the same time i am sure you can take a break, your mum and sis will undrstand! if you like you can make a sceduel in some free time and write down what to do and what you do and then you have a good idea on what you have to do each day. i know i am bragging on about you helping and if you dont alot (not in an offencive way) dont interffear with that exept you could try to help and cheer people up it will make you feel better! i know you have alot of things to do so you could tell me about them on this thread!
i hope you find this post helpfull :)
