Friday Morning Update

Grandma slept till 5 or so this morning. Not great, but it works. She ate some toast and drank about 6 oz of liquid this morning. Grandma is not happy with her medicine today and hasn't had any pain meds since 6 this morning. Her home health nurse from a year or so ago, Christine, is here visiting. Grandma really loves her and seems to be quite happy having her visit. In fact, Christine just got Grandma to take her medicine! THANK YOU CHRISTINE! Grandma has talked with her friend Joyce and was very happy to be able to talk on the phone. Her voice is still weak, but it made her happy to have that chat. She also had a call from her high school friend, Peggy, and was able to have a short conversation with her too. Nurse Brooke should be stopping by soon to check on grandma and see what her vitals are.We hope she will be able to continue to eat and drink today. Thanks as always for the love and prayers for our sweet Grandma/Mom!

  1. Paula, we were so sad not to see your beautiful, smiling face when we brought dinner tonight...but very glad that you were asleep and getting some good rest. David lovingly showed Tripp how to talk with his mouth full of brownies :-) (Sorry, David...I had to tell on you!)
    It's great to hear you were able to eat and drink a little bit today. You are such a trooper! Please remember that I am an ICU nurse and if you guys have any questions or need/want vitals taken when the nurse isn't there, I am happy to come and do it at any time. I have everything except an 02 sat monitor but I could probably borrow one at any time.
    I hope you have a good nights sleep. We can't wait to see you!
    Love you both,
    Alesha
