Thursday night, December 13th, Linda called us at about 1 in the morning to tell us that she just heard from Chandler and they were taking Mom to the emergency room because she was sitting up in bed complaining of chest pains. She was observed for a while and they returned her to Chandler on Friday morning. Linda was in Mom's room when I got there that morning. Mom was a little groggy but other than that, she seemed fine.
Linda and I looked into getting Mom moved into a room on the second floor which is the REAL Rehab floor, which is where Mom should be anyway. As it turned out, after meeting with the nurse and then with the administrators there, we were able to get Mom moved to a room on the second floor. We moved all her stuff and then wheeled Mom to her new room, got her situated and comfy in her bed, set up all her belongings in this slightly more spacious room and then we said goodbye to Mom so that she could rest after the night that she had. She doesn't have a roommate at the present time because that person ALSO went to the hospital with chest pains! Kathy said that when she visited Mom later that day, that they spent time sitting outside and that was very nice.
Friday, the 14th, Guillermo and I spent our first night in our new house. The house is still a mess - boxes everywhere with absolutely nothing put away, but at the very least our bed is set up and we had a good comfortable night on our new mattress! Time Warner Cable was supposed to come today to set up our cable and internet but they never showed up, so we had to reschedule.
Today, Saturday the 15th, I stayed with Mom while she had lunch. Which drove me a little crazy because on the menu was tamales, rice, beans and blueberry pie and it all smelled SO delicious. It was hard to sit there smelling all that good food! Mom ate most of her food although she wasn't very hungry but she said the food tasted ok.
