Mom has been very confused lately. She thinks that she is living in a hospital and just visiting me. Sometimes I can bring her back to knowing where she is, other times not. She wants to sleep alot and her appetite has decreased. She gets her dreams confused with reality.

I think that mom is getting ready to go. She has been talking to Grandma alot lately. With her sleeping so much she isn't getting much food or fluids. I'm afraid that she may develope pnuemonia. She has an Advance Health Directive so there isn't much left to do but wait. I'm not ready for her to leave me. I know that she will be better off, but...........

Well, mom seems a little better. We had a hard night last night, she was up most of the night coughing and vomiting and thinking that it was afternoon. I got her Rx refilled for coughing, it seems to help. She is still more confused than ever. Sometimes she thinks I am her nurse. Her dreams are staying with her longer.

I feel so bad for mom. All day today she knew something was wrong with her. She would be talking about something and realize that she wasn't making any sense and get this real far away look in her eyes. At least she wasn't sleeping! She/we got up at 7am. and she stayed up all day. Pretty good considering last week. I think I'll have her a little longer. Thank you Jesus.

Yesterday and today have pretty good. Mom slept in but, not too late. We were even able to go out for dinner! Of course, she didn't know where we were when we got home but, she said that she had a good time on our outting and wanted to go back and play POOL, this was her favorite pastime. I think that we can start going out a little more often now that she is feeling better.

I took a short break from writing. It has been a very hectic week or so. My brother came to visit for Thanksgiving. Mom had been looking forward to this, she kept asking if he was here yet. Both my sons and granddaughters were here for dinner. Mom had a great time, she ate until she hurt :-). We went out shopping on Friday, mom actually bought two things for Christmas gifts, picked out the colors even. We put up the lights outside, mom had forgotten that it was almost Christmas but, the lights help remind her. I hope that she stays healthy and well until after Christmas. I know that this will probably be her last one and I want it to be her best. Just think, two weeks ago I thought I was going to lose her.
