Reasons for my absence

Since the middle of July, I haven't been very active here. First I went on holiday and we travelled to spend a week at the beach, I tried to relax and stay away from the Internet during that week. When I returned home my mother fell and broke 2 ribs, it takes a lot of time to recover and I spent a great part of my time helping her. This week she was improving and getting better but she fell again on Tuesday she now has a big leg wound and a swollen wrist that don't let her make big movements with her hand. Today I will go with her to the health centre to check the wound again. To add this week I returned to work so my free time is very short. As my mother was getting better last week we reserved a hotel to go to a paradise beach this weekend but now it will depend on what the doctor in the health centre will say today Hope we will get good news today.

@nela13 Always happy to know people are caring for their parents. As I always remind everyone, the fourth commandment is the only commandment with a promise. Long live! And all the best.

I am so sorry, you should find out why your mom is felling, may be she has vertigo or a blood pressure problem. I wish you good luck and I wish her to recover well soon.

@nela13 I am sorry for those accidents, but at least you know that those were only accidents. It is so easy to fall while watering the garden, I was close to falling several times.

In the first fall she tripped on a rock she didn't see, in the second fall she was watering the garden and the hose got wrapped around her legs. I think it was only bad luck but she needs to be careful now, thank you.

@LadyDuck yes, were only accidents but she got really hurt. Be careful, falls are one of the reasons for broking bones.

Thank you, she was so well, these two falls really hurt her. In the first fall she tripped on a rock she didn't see, in the second fall she was watering the garden and the hose got wrapped around her legs.
