A very nice weekend.

Mom had a pretty good weekend, and so did Dad.  His pain was minimal.  He did wake up and talk a little to me.  I just love to see him smile!:)

Aside from the ongoing tour of the nursing home that has become routine when Dorth sees me, we have had some really nice conversations over the weekend.  I found out that it is mostly because other visitors have beaten me to the punch.  From what I understand, our wonderful friend Patty got the brunt of Dorth's demands before I got there.  Bless you Patty for being so good to my Mom...Now and always!  Your kindness and patience is truly a gift.

Our friends the Sullivans also came by today.  Mom really enjoyed talking to them.  She loves her visitors!

By the end of the day, Mom was exhausted.  I am hoping that she will get a good night's sleep tonight.  One of the nurses told me she worked the night shift last night and that Mom was up all night, calling for pain meds...I could be wrong, but I don't really think she is in that much pain, but she just gets bored, and therefore she concentrates on any pain, and makes it worse by focusing on it.  She was dozing off at 7:00 when I left.

Here's to a good night's  sleep!

Much love!
