Dear Annie: My 86-year-old mom’s friend vanished during her hospital stay — why is she back now?
An 86-year-old woman had a fall and a small brain bleed, was discharged, then developed stroke-like symptoms days later — and her friend who vanished during the hospital stay has now resurfaced, leaving the daughter unsettled.
Dear Annie: My 86-year-old mom recently had a fall. I rushed her to the ER, where doctors found a small brain bleed. She was home within 48 hours, saying she felt fine and that the bleeding had stopped. But three days later, she developed strokelike symptoms, and I called 911.
