Today we are waiting go transfer Mom to Edgewater for skilled care and rehab. We thought that was going to take place this morning but we've been pushed back a bit.
Mom is getting anxious
"Hurry up and wait!"
I know. How are you feeling?
"They have been wonderful here at Mercy but in and out. I've had people in and out of this room since six o'clock this morning. Not sure what they are all doing but they have been busy."
But, how are you feeling?
"I'm getting tired of not being able to do what I want to do. This sitting around or laying around and waiting bugs me."
I understand
"And another thing. They give me way too much food. It's good but they keep on shoving stuff at me. If this keeps up they'll need a winch to get me out of here!"
And...so it goes.
