Since being discharged from Mercy Hospice House of Johnston, Iowa Mom has started...eating. It really has been amazing. A week ago today I would have thought we were...done. However, Mom has different ideas:
"I'm hungry."
This from a woman who stopped eating several days ago.
Hungry? What would you like? (I try to have her think I can do...anything.)
"I would like (pause) well, what would you suggest?"
I can make a bunch of different things.
"That is exactly what I thought. This is like having my own personal chef to make my food."
Yes, Mom...it is.
And...So it goes.
