Dad fell out of bed

The hospital called Mom tonight. Dad had some how gotten under the bed of his hospital room mate. This means that he fell out of bed and rolled or crawled 3 feet. One of the neurologists came to make sure he didn't suffer any injuries (but he didn't check if he broke anything). Dad can't eat on his own or move at will. He does pull him self from side to side of his bed and can move his legs. The ward manager and Dad's primary doctor were paged (Doctor never answered - 4 pages too). Mom went to the hospital, mostly for peace of mind, to make sure Dad was okay. My aunt and uncle were there as well (co-incidentally). After they made sure he was okay Mom went home. My aunt and uncle (Dad's side) left before Mom and didn't even offer to take Mom home. Mom doesn't drive. She took a cab to the hospital and back. Thanks aunt and uncle you're so considerate.
