    Has anyone else only been able to wave in front of hospital?

    My mother fell a few days ago. Broke her wrist, head injuries, sprains etc. She's an 82 year old diabetic so it's not pleasant for her.

    I went to visit and they said "no visitors Covid". They gave me a map showed on map where she was.

    So I go wave to her. I had handed her nurse a note that says "I love you".

    When I was knocking on the window she was in a wheelchair with her back to the window. She could not see me and could not figure out where the noise was coming from.

    About that time her nurse walked in her room handed her my note. Mom turned around and saw me and was so happy. I was too actually but a bit Disturbed by how banged up she was.

    Long story short. It was a very special moment we shared.

    OMG! SOOOO glad she's in the hospital getting looked after!!

    It's got to be tough on you, not being able to give her a hug. And I don't understand the reason why you can't wear a gown and mask to see her.
    When I was in the hospital a couple of weeks ago, I was in the ICU ward, and there were visitors to patients there.

    I understand the hospital is liable for everything that goes on, but there's got to be a line somewhere thats got to be set.
    It's not fair to people who need to physically be in the same room with someone.


    If she doesn't have one already, I would suggest a baby doll for your mother.
    Supposedly, they help them cope with being alone, or not having anyone to talk with.
    They are supposed to be a very good therapy tool.

    It started as a therapy tool for Dementia patients, but others have found that these dolls work on seniors that are lonely, have too much quiet time, are beginning to show signs of dementia or Alzheimer's, or don't have any friends or family to visit them.

    This article is about dementia patients, but the info about the doll is useful.
