My Mom is very ill.
I cried at Christmas because she was so quiet, and just wanted to go home to sleep. When we opened gifts at Christmastime, she didn't say: "Save all the boxes" like she has said for as long as I can remember. She didn't do any cooking-she "wasn't up to it".
We brought her to her doctor a few weeks ago. Her blood results showed a decline in her kidney function. Yesterday, surgeons put a catheter in her, she is to start dialysis this morning. I am hoping that her mental facilities will somehow come back, when some of the toxins are filtered away...
If this doesn't help her mental statis, there will be more decisions to be made. She had broken her hip in April, and she cannot walk without the aid of a walker. Add this to her mental decline, and dialysis, and the quality of life decreases.
She is very quiet and not angry at all. She says she is not in any pain. I don't know who looks more lost, her or me......
My website is breaking down. I can only get a few colors uploaded for the background. What a mess. I think it is time to rehaul this whole blog, but I don't have the time or the energy to do it.
I have some sort of cold/sinus thingy going on, and all I want to do is sleep, and that is what I will do when I finish writing my entry.
My husband is traveling with the Presidential candidates-I haven't seen him in a week. Hopefully I will see him the end of next week.
I will be better by that time....
