I'm home for a day, Mom's taken a turn for the worse, her kidneys are shutting down, and the future is uncertain. As it is for all of us.Though her prognosis changes every 15 minutes, things do not look good.
Thanks so much to my blog family for all your good wishes.
I am keeping a journal of the saga. Some of it is funny, looked at in a certain light ... OK, if you insist, here's an example: My mother (who had been perfectly lucid until last week) hallucinating that she is in Sears, and asking the nurse does he work at Sears too? And him saying "No, but I shop there a lot!"
I mean really, Sears. Why couldn't she hallucinate Sak's, or Tiffany's???
Sick, huh.

i thought of your mom (this is weird) while in the shower today and said a lil prayer for her.
hope she takes a turn for the BETTER soon! you're in my thoughts!
What can I say in this situation? I would like to support you but it is not easy to find the appropriate words. Take care.
<3 I hope your Mom gets better
I'm so sorry. It must be hard.
Here's to a good Godiva Chocolates hallucination. :-)
Sorry to hear about your mom.
I hope I don't hallucinate Sears either. George Clooney yes. JCPenny no way.
Jeanne my thoughts are with you, too. I hope your Mom recovers and pulls through and I also hope you have a good support system there.
Laughter probably is the best medicine for you. I hope someone can find the best one for your Mom.
Thanks for the shout out, too.
You're in my thoughts. Do what you need to comfort yourself.
oh what a hard thing to go through. Sending supportive thoughts and prayers

That's terrible about you mom - I thought she would be ok after the fall.
I'm thinking of you
Hopefully everything is going well with your family. At least you guys can keep a sense of humor during these tough times!
I'm sorry that your mom is not well. I love your sharp eye for the absurd and your sense of humor will help you weather this.
Sending good thoughts.
Jeanne--I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. Nothing to say, but I'm thinking of you, and your family.
Your mom and your family are in our thoughts and prayers...
Keeping good thoughts for your Mom and your family, Jeanne. Hope things are going better this weekend.
