My mother's cath surgery today showed further heart deterioration and a poor volume of blood moved. Such a problem has no real solution. At 85 and considering her current quality of life; I'm attempting to get used to the inevitable...
Even through a day of anxiety and bad news though life runs on as before; I thought it nurse/patient banter when I overheard the (absolute knockout)recovery nurse telling my mother how handsome she thought I was. She was extremely friendly and pleasant to me as well.I mention to her how I appreciated her cheering my mother up. I was then informed that she was quite serious... I'm hoping to work out an actual date soon as one of my sisters is going to look after mom over Turkey Day.
Lately what dating I've done has been rather mercenary. I'm looking forward to taking things slow and friendly if I can ;~}
***I hope that in future I can expand on the issues that affect my communications and socialization (becoming a hermit). I don't want anyone to think one big drama is the sole cause. From past experience I know that writing it out helps me to understand and deal with such things in a fairly healthy manner.
