My Nan is seriously ill and on borrower time, she is diabetic and had her toe amputated around 10years ago causing issues with her balance, she has since had multiple strokes, one 5 years ago was so bad it left her paralysed down the left side of her body - it has caused various mobility issues over the years and she is very frail. About 3moths ago she had another big stroke and she fell badly damaging her heel on her left foot, she was unable to take any morphine due to other prescription drugs and left in a lot of pain, due to the left foot being injured and her being paralysed and weak her body was unable to to fight off infection in the foot and despite her weak heart they decided to operate and amputate the leg. Luckily she survived the procedure, this was 5 weeks ago - she has had 3 strokes since. Dr.s now think due to the strain on her heart over the years and the big stroke 5 years ago it's caused damage to the brain and she has miss firing synapses which are causing the strokes and an irregular heartbeat. They have not given her a specific time left but have idicated she is on borrowed time and it could be any day now.
My nephew is very close to my nan and is distraught right now, but he loves cars - Dirt3 may go a little way to taking some attention away from the hurt he feels about my Nan and at least put a smile on his face for a while.
Thanks
