Hello again
Wow it has almost been a week. Mom was sick again. This time,one night, mom had a coughing fit and was weasing while breathing. So I was getting very worried. It sounded awful sounding. I got the LPN to come check her out, and it sounded like there was liquid in her right lung. The RN came in and checked her out as well The same thing. So I turned my on her left side so as to let the pressure off of the right lung. This helped a bit. But I was crying. Yes I may come across as this tough guy, with an attitude, but I get very emotional when it comes to mom People say I don't feel anything. Somewhat true. But not when it comes to mom.
Well I was worried all the way back to Coquitlam. As soon as I walked in the door I immediately phoned the home to see how mom was. No change. Now this is where I was freaking out even more. What if, something were to happen to mom, I am in Coquitlam, No buses back to White Rock at that time of night. Only a $100.00 cab fare. And I don't have that kind of money lying around. Not at all. I need to be living out there as soon as I can.
I have an add on Craigslist, but not a response. Not one. Yea a scam response, Nothing real. I even up the amount I could pay, plus helping out around the house. And nothing.
What kind of world do we live in that no one is willing to give someone, who is taking care of their dying mother, as break. Greedy people, that is who.
The next day mom was better, a bit. But breathing a little better. I was relived at that. Since then mom is fine. Eating well. Drinking lots, but restless and having some anxiety. I am not sure what this is about. But her left arm is hurting again. Yet I am apposed to the Lorazapam being given to her. To many side effects. While she was on it, her left arm was relaxed, but to the determent to her health. So I am going to do some research. Contact the Mayo Clinic and John's Hopkins to see if they have and answer for me. There has to be something that mom can take without the horrible side effects.
Other than this mom has been doing OK.
It is the first time writing in days so I will be stopping now. It is all about mom.
GOD bless and goodnight.
