As I was getting ready to go HealthSouth, my mom called in tears. She had a nightmare filled night. She said she was told she had a UTI and was getting Cipro. She doesn’t believe she has a UTI. I pointed out that she never had a headache either but she still had two brain tumors. We kind of have to trust these people…..
I was waiting for her in her room when she got out of PT. We sat and talked and she dozed off periodically. After a while several of her friends came to see her, so after a brief visit, I grabbed her laundry and ran home to do it real quick, get a start on tonight’s dinner and get it all back to her. When I went back she didn’t even remember that I had been there earlier. I encouraged her to eat her lunch, but she was pretty uninterested. Rick and Tyler brought Idgie for a visit and we took her out to the patio for a while. She was very happy to see that goofy little dog and it did seem to cheer her up some. After a short time she told us she was tired and wanted to nap.
Tomorrow is her first radiation and the day she gets her stitches removed. She will be gone from HealthSouth from about 10:15 to 2:30 or so, and my guess is she will be wiped out. I think she may be up for visits after 6 or so.
