What to do ?
Mom-in-law does not want to go to hospital.! Her wrist is swollen and turning color. Feeling it , it does not appear to be broken , but a bad sprain.! Ooouch!
She's fighting me tooth and nail , cursing like a drunken Sailor..!
I don't drink , but I might have to get a pint of 101 "Wild Turkey" to persuade Mom to git..!
Funny , I don't recall saying (I DO) twicet..!

Soak the hand in COLD water.
Might help.
Get her to a doctor.

She's 89 and doing blood thinners and "Heparin" injections , which is the only pleasure I get (POKE HER) ! Clots are not an issue plus I'm certified in many emergency situations , CPR , etc. etc. !
BAD Attitude is thee problem..!  I'm never going to make it back to my camp tonight , it would be dark before I got there and I ain't skiing in the black of night !

I want either less corruption or more opportunity to participate in it.

Also, mental check. Does she always curse like a sailor? You can always call 911 and have them check her out.

Thanks for all the great advice , but you got to understand where we live.!
We are the 911 around these parts! If I feel the need , I WILL BREAK OUT THE DUCT TAPE and carry her to my truck.
Cursing like a sailor all the time ? .....Yeah , she hates us but it ain't us , it's in her poor mind.!
Denial , major..! She can't take care of herself and lost her independence..!
Hates everything...! I'm OK with this and do understand fully.
I'd just rather be skiing is all , all is well and she sleeping right now !
Thank YOU again..!
