Crazy Day

Hello Friends ~
Please think of me tomorrow, Wednesday, when I'm going totally insane! At 10AM I get this blasted fractured tooth taken care of. The doctor is discharging Mom from rehab, no more therapy for the hip. Mom is refusing skilled nursing. They informed I should have her picked up and moved by noon. HA! Well, I don't think that is possible, I explained. Social worker calls back, permission to stay until 2PM!! OH good. And I pick my kids up from school at 3!!!

What about a transport service, like how she got to your hospital??? You can pay out of pocket, about $200 and they will take her to her home!!! Gee thanks! Wonderful system we have here!

I just want to crawl back under the covers and not come out! After I get Mom home, I will have to go to the grocery store after I get her list. Mom thinks she can drive, the doctor hasn't told her she can't. Hello!!!!! Broken hip, 2 weeks post OP and no driving restrictions???? When I had babies I couldn't drive for 4 weeks!

Lord, I need patience, RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Friends, I'm still around, but Mom's emergency surgery last week has taken me away from home. I had a few posts done up ahead of time, but I fear they are probably at an end!

We moved her from the hospital today to a rehab hospital so they can concentrate on P.T. The nice thing is that this new place is smaller, and I was able to get Elke, the dachshund, into see her. I think pet therapy is excellent and seeing her dog did wonders for her spirits.

The Sundowners Syndrome is showing itself, but may not be as bad as a year ago when she had her knee replaced. However, it is scary to see someone you love go all wacky and act totally demented.

Anyway, just wanted to let my faithful followers know, I am here, but I'm not!! I appreciate your e-mails and your prayers.
