Well shoot, my Mom's in the hospital again.
She was admitted Tuesday morning and diagnosed with bronchial pneumonia. And with all the rain and dampness we've had, her RA has been really bad so they've given her morphine for the pain. Poor Momma.
Nathan had off yesterday because there was a staff professional day at school, so we headed to the hospital to visit her. She was sitting in a chair when we arrived and was pleasantly surprised to see us.
She didn't look too bad, just tired. Although she's still coughing, I'm not sure that will ever go away. We stayed for about four hours or so, enough time to make sure she's okay, but not too long to wear her out.
My Dad said she's going to rehab again, he's just not sure when.
At least she's got a pretty view from her room.
Please keep her in your thoughts and/or prayers, she's had a rough year. Oh, and my Dad too, he's exhausted being the care giver and hasn't been sleeping well at night for quite a while. Living two hours away isn't that far, but far enough away not to help out on a regular basis.

Oh Astrid, sorry to hear that your mum is back in hospital again with bronchial pneumonia, a rotten time for her and a bit difficult for your dad living so far away. I hope the rest and care will have her feeling better very soon and at home again.
Sending hugs and happy thoughts Astrid for you and your parents.

Astrid I hope and pray your mother gets well now. Does this mean she will be with her friend Gail once again?
Oh no, I just left a comment on an earlier post saying I hoped she was feeling well. Hope she makes a swift recovery. (((hugs)))

Hello, dear Astrid! Please know that I am praying for your sweet mom and dad during this time. I truly hope your mom recovers quickly.
Thank you for the lovely visit to my blog. Your comment was a joy to read. Hugs!
o no! At least that view is really spectacular. Hopefully she won't have to see it long though!
My parents are both having a bad year too. Please stay strong. I will keep your parents in my thoughts. Being a caregiver is hard work but so worth it. Big hugs!
