Mom Is In The Hospital Again...

Us Girls... Mom on top left

Mom is in the hospital again for a few days. Please pray for her quick recovery. Ron called yesterday to tell me that she was in again because she hadn't been taking her medicine to get rid of the water in her system. So, she began to swell up again. She has conjestive heart failure so it is important that she takes it. She doesn't like the fact that it makes her to to the "restroom" so much. OK... I know that doesn't make sense. I believe that she didn't mean to do this to herself... and actually, it sounds like something Kari would do. So the ADHD and behavior may be a factor here. She has made Ron her "medication buddy". He is now "allowed" by her to ask her or remind her to take her medications. Whatever it takes. I am Kari's "buddy". She has got good at taking her meds for ADHD. I now help her with other issues that maybe overwhelming to her.

This week will be busy... so hold on tight. I will try to pace my way through at an even trot.
