7 minute Audio Introduction to The Mom & Me Journals
is to undermine the isolation of the caregiving experience
by offering all, especially our loved ones, a window into our lives.
As I post to this journal I think of our loved ones and their families,
how busy and involved we all are, and that,
if and when they come to this site they can be assured
that they will miss nothing in our lives and will, thereby, recognize us
and relax easily into our arms and our routines
when we are again face to face.

New Blood Test Results Are Up
Damn! I missed another day!
The new blood test results are for July 18th, a CBC and Basic Metabolic Panel taken for the colonoscopist (requested by Mom's PCP) for Wednesday's procedure. I'll post a little later but I need to apply myself to making Jello® for ass scope prep day tomorrow.
For the record, "Not last night but the night before..." I gave Mom another 10 mg furosemide. I was surprised she needed it again so soon, so I've upped the leg rubs by one more and I'm rubbing her arms, now, too. I do believe my mother thinks she's died and gone to heaven, which is fine with me, as long as it keeps her from really going to heaven for awhile.
Back later.
