Life Unexpected

I was finally getting into the blogging groove...quite happy to be sharing a little every couple of days. But sometimes the unexpected just happens no matter how well you plan. Wednesday night my sweet Mom was sent to the ER after routine lab tests came back with 'abnormal' results. She was 93 last week...how's that for a Happy Birthday?

After 11hrs in the ER she was finally made a 'guest' of the hospital and continues to vacation in her private suite. She appears Perfectly Fine - so there is comfort in that. She's been on a clear liquid diet which just thrilled her to no end - NOT. But finally was upgraded to 'soft foods' earlier this evening - we celebrated with a Strawberry Milkshake and her favorite - 3 Muskateers candy bars! 
It looks like she'll be enjoying having to make the best of the accommodations a few more days, the doctors say she has 'slight pneumonia' but the antibiotics should bring that to a halt. Her spirits remain good but the dementia makes it hard for her to understand WHY she must take this little vacay. All will work out - meanwhile looks like I'm taking a little blogging vacay too. 

Hope to be back soon.

I just love to hear from you and I truly do read every comment. Sometimes life gets a wee bit crazy and I'm not always able to reply to them all...but I'll keep trying! If you are Anonymous or a no-reply blogger, leave your email with your comment, otherwise there's no way I can reply to you - and maybe you're okay with that - but if there's a give-away and you win...you'll never know!
