Still Crazy... After all these years...

I guess I lost my will to blog. :-)

For a while there...

I read over my last post in November 2009. I thought those were hard days. I had no idea what hard days were about to come...

I've been told by my mother's doctors to "prepare your loved ones" at least three times this year. Mom has had three strokes since March. Each one worse than the last. Each one taking more of mom's simple pleasures.

These most recent strokes have hit Mom's speech center of her brain. For days she couldn't say anything. Now she cans start a thought but is unable to finish it.

She has difficulty choosing the correct word to express her thoughts. This is particularly frustrating for Mom. She was always a talker, that one....

Today she's back in the hospital, depleted in every way. She's being tube fed, IV fluids, blood transfusions. And she presses on.

She's like the energizer bunny... she keeps on....

And to the watcher... Excelsior.... yk.... ( * )
