Thanks Cheryl, that's exactly what I said to the ortho consultant. I was going to continue to be a thorn in his side and my mothers advocate until I draw my last breath and I refuse to make any apologies for it.
When I went to visit her yesterday they had just called an emergency on her. Her BP and oxygen levels had dropped suddenly. By the time I left they had her stable again and all the tests had been done. I requested a phone call with the results. I got that phone call from the consultant within 5 minutes of leaving the hospital. It pays to show them you mean what you say. Otherwise you end up with situations where you get forgotten like poor Jules. She was just too nice and they just didn't listen to her. It never pays to sit silently.
