Well, that really happened. My daughter married the man of her dreams on Friday evening in a beautiful ceremony in Texas Hill Country. Jenna was a beautiful bride, and her husband, was a handsome groom. They will undoubtedly create some beautiful children. It was a stressful couple of days leading up to the ceremony, but it was a great night with incredible friends and family. They were surrounded by people who love them, and the reception was perfect! All the planning and work was worth it…..I can’t think of a thing that we missed.<\/p>\n
Mom was well attended to by a great group of friends while we were gone. And we thank you all from the bottom of our hearts! And a huge shout out to Penny Leinfest who orchestrated the week. My cousin, Steffie flew to Tucson to spend a couple of days with mom after the wedding. She said she couldn’t come this far and not come see her. Mom was able to see a lot of photos and the video of the ceremony.<\/p>\n
When I got there on Monday morning, she was more alert and talkative than she was when we left but her vocabulary seemed more limited. She is eating and drinking quite a bit less these days though, which doesn’t seem to be a good thing. I’m worried about how the skin on the underside of her arm looks…. I don’t think she is being turned as often as she should be and I wonder why I have to keep bringing it up. It’s not their first rodeo. They should know the drill.\u00a0Mom seemed to spend a lot of time trying to clear her throat and received atropine drops for it after I mentioned it to the nurse.<\/p>\n
It felt so strange to be gone for a whole week and not be consumed by mom and her condition nearly every waking moment. But I can’t lie, it was a wonderful break. I spoke to the hospice nurse today, who said mom’s blood pressure is lower and her heart rate is higher. Today she was even less talkative and ate and drank less.<\/p>\n
I apologize that I haven’t written in a week, but with the wedding and then coming home and finding out my website had hacking attempts made on it, and was disabled, I just couldn’t. That, and I’m not feeling like writing as much right now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
