TIME FOR MOM




Finally arrive at hospital and it's so good to sit with Mom.  She has been through Hell the past few months in hospital. When we arrived, Mom told us how she thought we would be there the night before at 5:00, so she got herself all cleaned up and ready, then went and sat in the hallway waiting for us to come but, instead, she found that we had come and gone without seeing her and left a hotdog on the chair for her!!  Knowing there was no way she can even get out of bed, I said, "Mom, were you hallucinating?" She said "yeah".  I said, "Mom, do you want a hot dog?" she said, "Oh, I would love one!" So, we did get her a hot dog, but she was only able to take 2 small bites.  Her appetite is poor and we need to encourage her to eat, as everyone has been trying to do.  Between visits today, we drove to the beach where I could put my "boot" in the sand.
