Mom’s update May 29th, 2011
I started the day with mom. When I walked into the room she was laying in bed with her eyes closed but she had a big smile on her face. She was in a great mood. How wacky that she slept all day yesterday and today she was wide awake! We watched the movie “Shall We Dance” on Ava’s laptop. I put in right in her lap so she could see it. She was very into the movie. After the movie I gave her the IPAD and she played around a little but wasn’t really into it. I then put the wii on. We played wii resort. I pushed the TV and the dresser closer to her bed so she could see it. After we played wii I gave her a scissor and we cut hand over hand. She started to reach for my pen so I asked her if she wanted to write and she said yes. I took out a book of mazes and we did one maze hand over hand first in red then in blue, etc. She was very attentive.
I left and dad came next. Mom was awake for dad.
Dad had her play with the pegs and pegboard. Mom’s friends Maureen and Flo came to see mom. Mom smiled when she saw them. They talked and visited for a while. When her friends left mom took a nap for a half hour and she and dad watched a movie. They put mom back in bed and she was in a great mood and “warmed up”
to dad (dad’s words).
Terry came and spent the rest of the night with mom and put her to bed. Mom eventually fell asleep before dad and Terry left for the night.
The head nurse spoke to me this morning and told me that she spoke to mom’s neurologist. He said he is trying to get mom a bed. The hospital told the neurologist that ER patients take precedence over scheduled procedures.
Please keep praying!
Peace and love,
