After three days in critical care, the hospital discharged my Mom to return to rehabilitation. That long list of serious ailments melted away due to the vigorous assault of modern medicine and fervent prayer.
She is not 100% as capable as she was. She has a new swallowing problem, probably the result of that last stroke. There is a strategy for dealing with this, so she can return to her occupational and physical therapy. Cautious optimism replaced despair, at least for the near term.
I am good with that. The recent excitement has been an emotional roller coaster for us all. I believe I shall celebrate Mom’s good fortune by having a brisk lie down in the afternoon.
The family and I are grateful for your expressions of concern and caring and especially the prayers. God bless you.
Hank & tribe.

Good to hear that things are a little better. It's always difficult dealing with aging parents. At least you can take solace in the knowledge that in 20 or 30 years you can put your kids through all this trauma as they deal with your decline! BR
ReplyDeleteThere's something to look forward to... Yike!
