Mum Fell Down

After x-ray, MRI scan, the orthopedic surgeon diagnosed mum as having multiple compression of the spine, slipped disc and bone spurs. Now, mum is using Forteo to inject herself every night at 9:45pm at the same time nightly. The medicine is paid by dad's pension that mum inherited. It costs $1,600 a tube that lasts about 10 times. Mum also has to take a painkiller, muscle relaxant, and calcium. She is very lucky to be staying in a very private condo to recuperate with the help of a maid and catering of food. Both youngest one and I with my spouse help mum, taking turns to see to her needs like getting her mixture potassium citrate from the pharmacist for gastric pains. I can only do my best as one parent is left and another had gone to heaven.
