Hello again
It is going to be quick tonight.
So yesterday, when I arrived at mom's she was not doing well at all. She was extremely tired and none responsive. Just wouldn't look at me or want to even move. So I had her put to bed right away. Before dinner. I did have a dinner for her. She did drink a bit, and ate her dinner, most of it anyways. But very slowly, but still not even looking my way or concerned about anything. But I got her to eat some fruit.
At least she ate and had dessert. The fruit that is. But didn't even keep her eye's open at all. Afterwards I just quickly did the dishes and just washed mom's face and arms. This she did not even want done.... But did it anyways.
And afterwards I just held her hand. She fell asleep, but didn't want to let go of my hand.
Before putting her to bed, I asked to have her blood pressure taken. And I waited for this. But I stayed until mom was fully asleep and longer. I didn't care what time it was I got home. I stayed until I was sue mom was OK.
Her blood pressure was low yesterday, but back to normal today. But mom was still tired. She did eat a little more this evening. I manged to wash her hair. She was asleep before I even finished with drying it.
Got her into bed, washed her face and arms again. And just held her hand.. I, again, stayed longer. But when I was trying to leave mom was shaking her head for me not to leave and holding on tightly. But I needed to leave.
It bugs me that I am out here. What if something happens in the middle of the night. I am screwed. I could not even get there.
When I got back last night the first thing I did was to call the home and check up on mom. She was fine. Well fine enough I guess.
I need to go now..
GOD bless and good night.

I am going to be starting another campaign. This time to raise money for a funeral for mom. I will let you know.
