Restarting this blog

Well time to get serious about moving my mom into our home. In the next couple weeks we will be putting her house on the market and change our house around. I would be stupid not to say I am worried, my mom has our moments, I have to remember she is getting older. She can sometime be that grumpy old lady, I love my mom and both my husband and I know we have to do this. Here is a picture of my mom.

My brothers and my mom taken about 2 years ago.

Ok this a first start for me I am going to try to do two blogs, one on my back problems and one for caregiver for my mother. I am blessed to have a great husband to help through this new move in our life.

Back from vacation

Back from my four weeks vacation to the west coast of United States, Good trip now back to care for my mother. Took her to a DR today for her shoulder that she hurt when she feel a month ago, I think the DR was trying to give me a sign about my mother and her living alone. So I think the time is coming where we will have to start making decisions about her life.

Start of a another week

Its Sunday morning and I thought it would be an easy day, but my mom fell out of bed this morning and bruise her eye and really shook her up. So I get stuck fixing supper for the family today. I have plans on going to Reno on Thursday to be with my husband and coming back with him in the RV, now I will have real concerns about my mother and her well being. I do have two brothers that live in the area, so I think they can check in on her.
We found out this week that she has a rapture achilles tendon. She has had this for almost two months now, and the DR finally found out what was wrong. Its probably too late for surgery for it now, plus she isn't in the best of health for that so we will wait and see. Well I will write later on.

New Month

Just finished a cruise on the Disney Wonder Ship. I went with the family of my younger brother. Had time that I didn't have to worry about my mother but that didn't last long. Tommorrow she goes to get a boot on her foot since she has been having problems with it for almost two months now. For some reason she has lost confinendence in her dr, which means we will have to go looking for a new DR.

Saturday Groceries

Well yesterday (Saturday) my mom want me to go groceries shopping with her, she usually go byherself but not anymore. She doesn't remember where everything is anymore so I run around Publix like my head it chopped off looking for her and the things she wants. She love the two for one sell even if it costs her double what it should. Oh well today we are going to her house to celebrate my niece's 11 birthday and I have my 19 months old son till Tuesday, so John and I will be kept busy. 

Tough day at the home front

Well today we are one day closer to buying the house we have been trying to buy since last Sep. Today I took mom to the hospital for xray on her knee after her fall last week.
John and I are still trying to make up our mind about this summer, if we will go out west together or he will go out by himself. Decisions are tough to make right now. 

Decisions need to be made

I hate having to make up your mind when you are caught in the middle. John's mom in Reno, NV is in bad shape and we planned on going to visit her this summer. Now my mom isn't in good shape and this house we are buying is taking for ever. John and I don't know what we are going to do. We like between a rock and a hard spot since it is both our mothers and 1500 miles between them.
I guess we will just have to pray about it and hopefully we will get some answers for our problems.
