Mom Transferred to Nursing Home
Tuesday, I left work about noon because the hospital decided to discharge Mom. I had already talked with Cook Springs Nursing Home and made arrangements for her a Rehab bed there. I packed up some of her things and picked up Aunt Mildred (Mom's spry 86 year old sister) and we got to Cook Springs a little before 2pm. It took forever to sign all the paperwork and get her stuff unloaded into her room but she did not arrive by ambulance until about 4pm. She was very upset and angry and said some things that she would not have said if she did not have dementia. She is in Room 102 of Cornerstone Rehab Unit. Got home about 7:30pm. She was doing better today and I will go back up to see her Thursday afternoon. Talked with Alyce and she and Terry went to the hospital again. His potassium was a little high but probably because they had increased the cyclosporin last week. His 100th day will be next Tuesday so they are having to schedule all the tests that he went through before the transplant took place. Then they will probably do another Bone Marrow test soon also. Everything is still looking good, just SLOW. Terry and Alyce have an anniversary coming up the 27th and plan to stay overnight at a fancy local hotel. Our anniversary is the 26th and we will be out of town a couple of days this weekend. Oh I'll let you in on a little secret; Alyce swears she saw a little peach fuzz growing on Terry's head this week. Hope you are having a blessed week. Love, Karen
