Mom awoke mentally a bit today!



Poor Mom, did not even recognize who I was most of the day. Just about 8pm I gave her nightly pills and asked her questions like where she was born etc. She seemed to respond well to that, yet 5mins later she was mentally gone again. It is so sad to see her lose her thoughts so easily. Although I understand that it is the dam process of cancers and deaths grip, it never-the-less doesn't make it any less painful to watch.

Well for example ... just now she woke again called my name, but when I said yes Mother and went to her side, she went on something about saving the key somewhere on a tree for the mailman or something I couldn't make out. Poor Mom she's a hess of a mess as she use to say just a month ago. Good news is at least my TN pain in somewhat under control and not misbehaving lately. I can't believe how much easier I can deal with things when I'm not in constant chronic pain like I was a short few weeks before. I thank God for that and perhaps all your prayers!? Thanks.

Brother Dick will be coming up tomorrow to visit and give me some rest time. The lady next door came by and offered to watch Mom if I wanted to take a walk. It was around 6 pm still warm and pleasant enough for a walk, so I said You Bet Cha. Thanks Rene!

Well that's all folks, time to get ready for sleep. Goodnight all. Dave
