Pretty good day. Met with some family at mom’s place. We visited for a goodly amount of time. She was pretty distressed and I anxiously awaited the arrival of sweet morphine. No such thing, so far.

I did a bunch of errands.

That is all

Got the call from Molly, the rn at elderhealth, that hospice is recommended for mom. She’s stopped eating and drinking. So that was a drag but not unexpected.

It’s unbelievable to me that she’s been at the memory care for more than 2 years. Where did the time go.

Lots of calls to make tomorrow and texts to send.

I’m such a dumbass that today, a 100 degree day, was the day I went for a walk between 11 and 1. Christ it was hot. I’ll be lucky to get away with a sunburn only on my forearms.

In every other way I felt so much better. I may have to stop drinking completely. For every time I have more then a couple of beers, I have to spend an entire day feeling depressed and weird.

Anyway, tomorrow I’ll try to get away from the heat. Maybe go up to sisters.

Didn’t do shit today.

Saw mom. She wasn’t out of bed again.

Edit: the nurses at eh say that today was the day she really started downhill.
