Only a year? I told she's 88 but you don't have to go all doomsday on me. | |||

Is the change still there? Is she happier than normal, now that she's home? Not to be a downer on this somewhat light-hearted discussion, but I have heard tales of people having mild strokes that altered their personality. Just a thought. I hope she is doing well. Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | |||

Could be that she, for lack of a better term, popped off to the wrong nurse and said nurse told her exactly how she would be treating staff from that point forward...or else. Some of those old school nurses can be pretty crusty. NRA Life Patron | |||

Wondering if this could go all House MD, but could it be a positive side-effect situation (some are)? Hidden pre-existing condition which was relieved by whatever therapy/drugs she received at the hospital for a different reason. Say the high blood pressure was exacerbating a small aneurysm in the pre-frontal cortex, this in turn caused typical frontal behavior- displaced anger, difficult to get along with, frustration and confrontational behavior. Whatever rescue medications she received during her hospital stay coincidentally and dramatically assuaged the local pressure in the brain and let Mom briefly become the person she really is, sweet and appreciative. Do you know exactly what meds she received? | |||

This is actually what I was thinking as well. Hopefully all is fine. __________________________ "Trust, but verify." | |||
