In bed again

Hello again

So I arrived knowing it was mom's bath day and she would be in bed, again. Mom was so tired. I really am sick of mom spending so much time in bed. She doesn't want to eat properly. Takes forever to chew anything.

They have her where she can't even see the TV, and it is on. It is not mom's fault, it is the staff who have no idea what is what or even if mom can see the TV or not.

This I will be bringing up with the manager on Monday.

I am not picky as some would say, I do everything for the benefit of mom.

I did get her to eat, it took a while, but she did eat. A fair bit. And of course mom loves her fruit. This I am very happy about.

After dinner, mom was ready for bed, but we had the spa treatment yet to do. Mom was mostly asleep while I was doing this for her.

I bought mom a fan, and set it up after her spa treatment. In the lower Mainland, it has been extremely hot. Hotter than what is for this time of the year. 34 c at noon. So I decided mom needs a fan.

It was not that hot in her room. At least they had the fore site to leave the drapes closed through out the day. But the fan is there.

When I was finished with that mom was asleep. Her grasp of my hand was loose, yet as soon as I started to take it away, she grasped my hand tighter.

I stayed late, actually.

I need to move. I need to find a place. Yet I have had an add on Craigslist for a very long time. And nothing. OK. I have found a few places, but as soon as I am honest and tell them I am a smoker, and I am an outdoor smoker only. They say no.

I try to be honest. I think I will lie and get an e-cigarette.That way if I need a puff I can take care of that without having to go for a walk.

Today my arm is really bad. This is taking forever as I am typing left handed and it is a slow process. I can barely turn my neck to the left.

OK Done

Please pray that I find the funds necessary to get mom the ROHO cushion and I find a place right away. I really hate being here and I don't even want to come home at night.

I think I will print up and add and make a bunch of copies. Walk around and put them up at the hospital, laundry mats, grocery stores etc......... See what that may bring.


GOD bless and good night
