Hi all, just an update. Mother is coming home tomorrow, she sounds fine for the most part. What is missing is her crankiness, her constant demands and her negativity. Do you think that might have been "erased" in her memory lapses? nahhh 🙂 I'm sure that'll come back too and after what I've been through, I think I'll take it.

Something good did come out of this experience though. She was always terrified of ending up "in a place like that". She found the nurses and aides to be very nice as well some of the residents. I think she might have actually enjoyed a couple of the activities over the last two days.

She'll need some help physically and a home health aide will be by to see what she needs. Also found out through a friend who put us in touch with someone else that mother qualifies for some additional funds through the VA she had not been collecting and got the forms to fill out for that.

I need a vacation but I don't think that's in the cards anytime soon. It is amazing how your life can change in a matter of hours. She has an appointment monday to get the staples out, will definately have some questions for the surgeon and will go from there. I want answers!

Casinokat - I'm very sorry to hear you lost a furry friend.
