My ex mother in laws sister is in a care home and is type I diabetes as is ex my mother in law. He sister has been ringing her distraught as her bg levels have been recently either 20-25 and on one occasion 2. She is also bedbound. The diet in the home is pastry pies rich tea biscuits etc. Although the information given to me is secondhand and sketchy, I’m very concerned for ‘my auntie’ she is not local so no one can pop in and see her , it is a 4 hours drive away. She has a phone but apparently (?) it is not programmed to dial 999. She is drifting into deep depression and is convinced some of the staff are trying to kill her. I’ve told my ex mother in law to ring the local social services, which she has, but they have not got back to her as yet. Ideally we would like her to be moved back to our area so as we can pop in and see her. does anyone have any experience or advice they could share please? Thank you
