Mom is home now.

For those of you keeping up with my Mom and her recent illness and hospital stay; she was transpoorted home on Saturday by ambulance. She slept most of the day Saturday. My Dad was a wreck on Sunday taking care of her. I seriously thought he cannot handle this. But I will give him a lot of credit for what he is doing and it breaks my heart that I cannot help him as much as I would like too. By Monday he seemed to settle down (my Dad that is). I could hear it in his voice how tired or stressed he gets. I actually talked to my Mom Monday and she told me that she was hungry and they weren't feeding her! My Dad had just told me she ate breakfast but apparently it wasn't what she wanted. It was quite funny it was like she was telling me that they were not feeding her. My Dad asked her what she wanted and she wanted a italian beef sandwich from the hot dog stand we like to go to. So Dad went and got her a sandwich. She needs to eat she has lost weight and needs to get strong again. I think my Dad has determination to make her well again and he will accept nothing less! I am one of those who have to wait and see and can not get my hopes up until I see for myself. Hoping and praying for the best here is all I can do right now. I call Mom & Dad daily to get and update. Today she sounded good but she has to stay in bed for 2 days the blod thinner has her blood a little thin trying to regulate the right dosage. So again thanks for the prayers and phone calls and notes of kindness it means so much to me that words could never describe it.
