Hello. Don't read if you don't want to. It's depressing.
It's been an interesting week and I'm shocked at how quickly Mom's deterioration is going. I'm thinking we might not get to move her to my sister's house after all. :( She fell backwards from her walker right here in the living room. Would have had to call 911 if Hubs hadn't been here. I can't make her sit all the time.
We have a baby monitor for her at night. Sometimes she gets up in the night and I wake up immediately when she starts grunting and scooting, falling back to sleep when she settles again. Last night I heard a thud! She was lying face down like she'd been on her way back to bed and had a wound on her forehead. Got her back to the bathroom, treated the wound, and got her back to bed. She doesn't remember any of it and can't figure out why she has a bandage on her head. It was a goose egg, but the swelling has gone way down.
Hubs and Deputy left to go to a gun show as Mom was coming into the living room again. She wouldn't sit down, as she was 'wet'. Took her back to the bathroom to get her cleaned up and discovered the bed was wet, too. Single-handedly had to put her into the shower, strip her bed, and all the other things involved with such an event.
My two guys got home and Hubs got right to work on the mattress. We were soooooo not prepared for this in any way!!!!
My sister is sick today after the party at *gulp* Chuck E. Cheese's last night. I wish they'd quit working on the apartment that probably won't get used and help me get Mom's apartment packed and ready for her to move out.
I really fear there is only one move left. Deputy and the Lovely L really could see the difference. :( I'm exhausted!
I might be on here more often for a bit, but if you don't read, I understand.
