And So It Goes....and the David Olney Countdown....

Going to the hospital before and after work wears me out and sometimes I feel like I am in that spiral of the parking garage all day long.  When she's this weak and sad though I feel I have to go as much as I can.  Thank God my sister Debbie gets here Friday.  When I told my mother that Debbie was coming she was so happy that she cried.

It was kind of a hard visit.  She's much better than she was over the weekend but she's exhausted and scared and sad.  She's on a pureed diet and I did get her to giggle a bit over the menu.  For breakfast a few of the options are things like "Rice Crispies---Soaked" or for dessert---how about "Vanilla Wafers-Soaked?"  I got her vegetable lasagna as it sounded like it might be o.k. pureed.  Someone has to sit with her while she eats so I stayed.  She got so exhausted trying to eat that I fed her.  Made me think of the feeding the boys as babies.  She started having problems breathing so I got the nurse who called in Respiratory.  They gave her a breathing treatment and that seemed to help.  I got home later than I planned and was tired and kind of sad.  

It's o.k. though.....Debbie gets here and Friday night David Olney and Sergio Webb will be smack dab in our living room.  Life IS good despite it all.

 
  

Here is David and Sergio....the song Deeper Well with a bit of Percy Bysshe Shelley's Ozymandias in the middle.
