My mom checked herself into the hospital on Sunday. The doctor stated that she needs to go to rehab for physical therapy. The nurses in the hospital agree. EVERYONE agrees, but my mom wants to go home. Don't know how she'll get home. She missed an opportunity for an opening today. The bed got filled.
Also, "mom, you were SO smart to check yourself into the hospital when you realized that something was wrong! I'm so glad that your medical team has a plan of care for you, which is to go to a rehabilitation place to get strong enough to return home; I can't imagine that SOME people would be foolish enough to turn down an opportunity like this to get stronger, and Medicare will pay for it".
