Am I The Only Person Who Burns The Toast And Cries About It?
It really sucks when something tiny and insignificant happens that ruins your entire day. All I did was burn the second batch of Cinnamon Toast. It made me feel like, "Today is totally gonna suck." :: sigh :: But my sweet little children ate it anyway. I didn't think they were old enough to understand how to make someone feel better by taking a bite of the horrible food they made and smiling and saying, "Mmmmm!" no matter how bad it tastes. ... I don't know what I'd do without these kids.
I must say something about my grandmother today. Now this is not my grandmother who lives in Dayton. This is my grandmother who lives here in a Nursing Home. She's deaf and has schizophrenia. And barely even knows who I am when I go see her. I have to go when my mother goes just so she'll know me by association. Anyway, now my mother says that the last time she went to see her, she didn't even know who SHE was. So apparently her mind is just about gone. My grandmother also threw out her glasses, so my mom can't even write anything down for her to explain things to her or tell her who she is or anything. She's deaf, but doesn't read lips very well and doesn't know sign language. And she has to have glasses to read.
The nursing home called my mom last night and told them that they took her to the doctor and that she was having some... feminine bleeding. The doctor tried to explain that he needed to examine her, but she has no comprehension of that at all. There's no way to explain it to her either. So they wanted my mother's permission to take her to the hospital and put her under so they can examine her. And if it's cancer, they'll have to operate and give her chemo and everything. She may not even survive that. My mother told them she wasn't ready to make a decision like that for her. I don't know what's going to happen. If it's cancer, she's gonna die from that. And if they do give her chemo, she may die from that too. I mean she's like 80 years old.
So what am I gonna do today? Something at church I believe. We have some sort of cleaning day scheduled for the CAGE. There's gonna be pizza in there somewhere so I guess it'll be worth going. ;)
I had so much more to say today, but it's just too much. I don't want to bore you with it all.
Have a nice day everybody! :)
