HOLY SHIT! She slept through the night! You can’t see me, but I am doing a happy dance! Today is the first day since I started staying with mom that we slept through the night and I actually feel like a human being the next morning! \u00a0As soon as I got her some coffee, and breakfast and she was happily talking on FaceTime, I was able to go out and sweep the patio. Every time she goes in or out she complains about the leaves and crap everywhere. There are storms EVERY afternoon, it’s what happens in Tucson this time of year. Alright, already, I’ll sweep. At home, I use a leaf blower-it’s so much easier!<\/p>\n
We were in and out of the car so many times today, my back is killing me! I’m ready to throw the wheelchair in the road and run over it. Repeatedly. It’s light, yes, but it is so hard to get her in and out of it because it’s so damn narrow and the footrests don’t get out of the way easily. I’m thinking of trying to drive her car, because it’s lower. I have been told, by close family members that I’m kind of a car snob….I will try to get past it….<\/p>\n
All things considered, it was a good day, but mom is still quite weak, and I think she will continue that way through the end of radiation. She seems to do the best on weekends when there is no radiation or appointments, so that is encouraging.<\/p>\n
