Some of you may know my mum was taken back into hospital a few days ago. My aunt, sister and I had been caring for her at home. She had become doubly incontinent. We didnt question when the hospital put her in an isolation ward. Anyway to cut a long story short she caught CDIF from the hospital when she was in there a few weeks ago. We were only told last night what she has. We were not warned of the possibility even though the hospital suspected it all along and they now have so many cases, aftrnoon visiting has been stopped. My mum had virtually wasted away by the time she got taken in and was put initially on the very antibiotics which feed the bug. Luckily now she is on the correct medication, However obviously we are all at risk, not having been warned we have had very close contact with mum, kissing goodbye ect. Today I have been suffering from the most horrendous stomach pains so Im just praying I havnt caught it cos I think in my condition it would be the final straw. I know how much my mum has suffered bless her
