Oh man I totally understand that feeling of cabin feverish sitting in the hospital like that (wait I can’t remember if she’s in a hospital or assisted living, but basically same difference). It is DRAINING. I mean I basically was in the hospital for 42 days straight with Matt and that was the most exhausted I have ever been in my LIFE.

I’m glad you were able to have that conversation with your mom about your limit and becoming overstimulated. It definitely makes sense!! I would have had the exact same reaction as you. I’m glad you were still able to get to Olive Garden yay! I’m also glad that your grandma seems to be doing a little bit better too :) I think you’re right and that the visits from family help. I’d also be worried about the possibility of mini strokes! Just from what you’re describing. But so glad you were all able to be there for her.
