Mom doing better

Mom seems stronger now than she has in quite a while, even though she still says she doesn't feel good at all.  But it was nice to see her filing her nails today while she was in bed, something new.  I spent the night last night, (Kathy spent Friday night and Linda spent Thursday night which had to be rough for her since she was a little sick).  Last night wasn't as easy as some of the other nights since Mom got up a few times to go to the bathroom.

Also, when I spent the day with Mom on Friday, right before I was getting ready to leave at 4, the technician came in to give her her breathing treatment.  So, I waited until the treatment was over to leave, but as I was packing up my stuff, I looked out the window and saw what I thought was walker in the driveway leading to the parking lot of the hospital.  As I looked more at it, I could tell it was a wheelchair and I mentioned to the technician that there's a wheelchair in the driveway of the parking lot!!  He looked out the window and was shocked to see it there and as he headed out the door to his next patient, I heard him calling security about the wheelchair.

So, by the time I got downstairs and was leaving the hospital, I pass the security guard who was walking slowly with the wheelchair by the street.  I drove on out and as I approached the street that leads to Walmart, I saw a lady in a hospital gown walking up the street with another person!!  So, I turned the car around, drove up to the security guard and told him there's a hospital patient walking up the street to Walmart!  He thanked me and as I drove back up the street, I looked in amazement at the lady, in just a hospital gown, walking up the street as if it was nothing.  Who knows whatever became of that!!!!

John came in to town this evening to spend a few days here to help out with staying with Mom in the hospital.  Yay!
