Tired Tired and more Tired

Hello again

I guess you  can tell by the title of this post that mom was extremely tired this evening. And when she is this tired, she leans. Now it is next to impossible to give her something to drink, without spilling it all over her. As she is leaning and it just comes out the side of her mouth.

So I have to try and straighten her up. And mom is just not happy about this. I really hate doing it, as I have to shift mom in her chair. And I can never tell if I am doing it to hard. I try to be as gentle as possible. But I have to lift her up and move her over. Then I have to put some towels beside her in her chair. On the right side. You see mom always leans to the right.

This also makes it very hard to feed her when she leans so far over. I have tried one foam piece, that I made. But this has vanished. They threw it out. I have and idea of what I need. I just have to figure out how to cut the foam.  Scissors just are not working.

Now it could be that mom's diapers were full and she is leaning not to sit in it. I will have to watch this. But I think it is when she is really tired.

But mom ate and finished what I brought plus dessert.

I brought home the Duvet cover last night and washed it. So this needed to be put back on the comforter. Which took time. Since I could only use one arm to do this.

And once done, mom didn't even want her spa treatment done. But I did it anyways and mom was happy I did it, as well.

We finished early, so I had plenty of time to stand and hold her hand. She was not quite asleep, but I needed to leave so I could get her the Cornish hen I am making her for her Birthday and Thanks giving dinner.

I make her something special every Birthday and Holiday.

This year it will be a little harder, with the injuries from this accident. The lump on my right elbow is getting larger.

I am done and am very tired. I am waking up several times through out the night in pain and having an extremely difficult time moving my right arm.

GOD bless and good night

Still have not found a place to live. I need to be out of here. Don't have a clue what I am going to do. Everything is out of what I can pay per month.

$650- $700 to rent a room in a shared accommodation If I could find someone to share with. We could do it for 5 bills each. But nothing so far.
