Dangerous music
Bad things don't really come in threes, do they?
Another Monk's in emergency tonight. Mom was out shopping in a nearby cd store
when she tripped and fell. Broke her hip. Replacement surgery is early tomorrow
morning, same time as Jo-Ann's biopsies, which were rescheduled from
yesterday.
Mom's in good spirits and
enjoying the morphine, more worried about adding to Jo-Ann's stress than her
own. Jo-Ann recently took over from me as Mom's attorney for personal care. We
told her to stay home and get some rest. Diane's the alternate, and she's been
coordinating with the hospital staff for the last few hours.
Meanwhile I'm issuing an update to the family
talking points. The expression "it could be worse" is off the list. No sense
tempting fate.
