Mom's Home

It has been an extremely exhausting day.  Bill, Diane and I were at SNC to get Mom "signed out" by a little after 9:00 a.m.  (Traffic was unbelievable due to icy roads.)  She was home and in her favorite chair by 11:30 a.m.  Jon was also able to be there since he didn't have to go to work.  We had lunch then the Hospice In-take Nurse was there for almost 3 hours going over everything.  It was very overwhelming for me.  I can't imagine what it was for Debbie, our cousin, who will be Mom's Caregiver.  Shannon brought Jessie to Grandma's, too, so for awhile it looked like we were having a party!  (Jessie thought we were!)  We finally left them alone around 5:00 to settle in for the night.  It wasn't a good day for Mom.  She's very tired and weak.  I hope it was just transitioning from one place to another. 

A tiring day for Bill.  Actually, several days have been tiring for him.  Tomorrow he says he's not going anywhere!
