Mom was complaining of a major headache again today and I took pictures of her sutured up chin, bruised cheek, goose egged brow bone and black eye. No harm in documenting I suppose. They gave her some tylenol and we tried to take her mind off of it by going to get some coffee and playing go-fish. She went to speech therapy, came back and laid down for awhile until lunch came. Johnny got there shortly after lunch was served and was there all day long....and it was a long one. We decided to have Mom taken to the ER again today because her headaches were just so bad they were causing dizziness and nauseousness (if that is a word). Plus, just to get her checked out again since she had another fall after her stitches fall. Turns out, she has 2 small fractures bottom of her chin and her left jawbone. We were trying to get her back into Promise until she got her balance more but bc of insurance she can't go back. We called several places today and all of them are restraint free. We are checking into some places that specialize in brain injury but they are all out of town or state. We will know more tomorrow.
