She's Back In The Hospital Again.

[Janet]

I brought Mom home and she was happy to be there and sleep in her own bed. She is weak though. Yesterday (Sat.) I spent the afternoon with her at her house. She keeps all her meds in a cabinet by the kitchen sink so I decided it was time to go through it. Good thing.....there were medicines OTC and prescription dating back to 1985. I brought a big bag of all the stuff we through out home to be destroyed. To tell you the truth...I was afraid to leave any of it because Mom just hates throwing anything out and I was afraid she would go through it and keep something.

She had two shelves in this cabinet full of meds. Now she doesn't even have enough to fill one shelf. We have her medicines all organized now. I also cleaned out 3 other cabinets for her and there was something on her kitchen ceiling that had splattered up there so I cleaned it off. Changed the sheets on her bed and stayed while she took a shower.

It was work, but I had a good time...Mom was being good...lol...and I enjoyed being with her.

Today..she wants me to take her to Wal Mart if she's strong enough (she can ride one of the scooters), but she would like to get a few groceries and some gift cards. Mom wasn't able to gift shop and well....neither was I. Hopefully she'll be fine and we can get her there and back without an incident of any kind.

I do need to bake a cake or buy one for Monday....my little boy is going to be 20 years old on Monday the 20th....I can't believe it. Someone's getting old and it sure isn't me....rofl!!!!

Thank you all for your prayers. I appreciate you all so much and really don't know what I'd do without you all.
