Mum in ICU for 4 weeks
 
Hi everyone,

Im glad I found this forum and I hope all here have got some type of comfort in knowing there are people around the world that are going through what we are.

I would like to thank you all in advance and hope that someone can give me some advise on my mother's condition (MG). She has been on a ventilator for 4 weeks and was getting stronger day by day but has got a urinary track infection that has knocked her back a little.

the biggest problem we have here in cairns (far north qeensland, australia) is that we dont have a neurologist so all advise has been given over the phone by the nearest neuro which is 400 klms away.

I know its hard to advise on a time where being on a ventilator, but is there a time of no return?

Again thanks in advance
Tony

Welcome to NeuroTalk, Tony :)!

I am SO very sorry to hear about everything that you and your mother are going through right now!:hug: I hope things start looking up soon and that your mum gets the help she needs!

I have no experiences with MG so can't help you there unfortunately but if you ever want to talk, i'm here for you.

Here's the link to the MG forum - you'll meet many great people there who will hopefully be able to offer some advice:

Welcome to NT

We're here for you. You're very brave in the face of "no return."

I'm sure the MG forum will have a lot of info for you.

Here is a song "Angels Calling at my Door." I found it very comforting and true through my loved one's passing.

Peace to all...
