We have been begging the VA for years for a push assist wheelchair with tread on the tires for DH. Well tonight during our evening chat I had to run to the restroom for less than 2 mins he went to try to enter the house by barely a half an inch stoop the cat ran and screamed and jumped on my lap while i was on the toilet so i knew something was wrong with dh. She will only sit on her daddys lap unless he needs me. I rushed out on the patio to check on him and came out to finish our evening chat with him on the ground and the wheelchair on top of him. I had to shake him to wake him. He could move yet was in very bad pain so I picked him up in our night clothes and rushed him to the nearest ER. They brought a gurney out to get him a room ASAP. I explained that they could not strap him down due to his PTSD and tbi it might throw him over the edge that is why I did not call an ambulance.
I will keep you all posted so far they have done X-rays, urine test and blood work, please keep us in our thought when you can. I just want him to be ok and now this is 2 injuries that could have been avoided with the proper equipment. I just want to Scream at the VA at times.
