Dear lovely readers,
I wanted to let you know that my mother is in the hospital with a bowel obstruction. A rough night with her in agony and my sister and I wanting to avoid the hospital like we did last year. (It seems to be an annual late summer event.) Good thing we gave it up; it’s the real McCoy this time. Caught the ambulance this time, too. Probably akin to hiring a Lear jet when the bill comes, but much easier.
She is resting “comfortably” with a nasogastric tube up her nose, which is not comfortable. I have had 30 minutes sleep in 36 hours, but hey.
We will, most likely be camped out here for a while. After the last hospital catastrophe, one of us will be with her at all times.
More on Wednesday!
Gretchen, aka Daughter on Duty, along with my wonderful co-DOD.

You must be on an emotional roller coaster , remember not one of those emotions is wrong. Yes, the universe is unfolding as it should. Leave it all in Creator’s hands!

Thank you. Almost too tired for emotions at this point! I think she will be fine. This isn’t her first one. But at 100, it will take its toll, I expect, as each trauma does.
