The past 24 hours were pretty good for Mom. The pain and other symptoms are reduced; pain spiked to a 5/10 last evening, but we were able to resolve it quickly. Mom had some visitors — 2 grandchildren and a friend came over in the afternoon and stayed for dinner, and I brought back two of my kids and my wife for a visit at the end of the day. We are all masking indoors or trying to move outside and keeping our distance. The fatigue is still stronger than before, but it is not keeping Mom from doing whatever she wants to do. Mom slept through the night without any real issues, and her appetite is much stronger, even in the early morning. I figure if you can eat and sleep and hang out with people, you are doing OK. My older sister is coming down today to spell me, and my Mom’s older sister is flying in from AZ tonight.
NOTE: If you are planning to stop by, we are asking all visitors to please wear a mask indoors around Mom and to maintain 6′ physical distancing.
