It's winter...not yet, officially. It's cold, it's dark, snow is on the way.
Christmas tree has been up for 9 days...an artificial one this year. sad, but nice. It's not decorated....yet, except for balls on the bottom 1/3 front..done by 3 grandchildren last Saturday. a delight...Z said, "This is SO much fun." mind keeps going back to Mom...today. a little, old lady slumped over with head leaning on side of wheelchair. drinks some hot chocolate that I put ensure in...then too cool. eats bites of a kind of turkey loaf with gravy...like a baby bird...fed to her by me. UTI...again. antibiotic...again. antibiotic makes sooo tired, I'm told. 10 days of it. Less than 100 pounds. Increase 4 oz. nutrition drink to 3x a day. she will bounce back....she always does...the cycle....but the bounce is getting shorter & shorter....she is tired...so very tired.... I want her to smile.... Tomorrow is another day.....
