The Long and Winding Road…

Mom was in a grand mood on Friday when I stopped to see her before heading out of town to visit my dad. I thought I was one heck of a comedienne – had her laughing out loud! Then I walked into the other room for a minute, and she kept laughing. Heh. I guess I can’t take credit.

Sounds like she had an okay weekend. Susie said she has been very unsteady on her feet, which is disconcerting. The good news is, her room is now completely free of furniture other than the bed, making for more walking space and less things to hit her head on.

I took the photo below after work today; she was sound asleep and barely moved when I gave her a kiss. She looked so sweet.

Today’s Caregivers post is a follow up to last week’s caregiver guilt piece:  Check it out —> here.  The Four Agreements, by Don Miguel Ruiz, isn’t just for caregivers. It’s a great read for anyone needing to level set and find some perspective in this crazy life.
