Mom called me. Every word she said was negative. Second time home health aid came out. Both times left mom damp when she dried her. First time mom said she was still damp. I don't mind if you use a second towel. This time mom said give me the towel I am still damp and I want to dry more. Mom said she fell and brother had to pick her up. She doesnt know if it's the newspaper that fell on the floor or the health aid didn't roll up her pants legs good enough. She is supposed to go to doctor but no sence if he wont give stronger meds. And they won't cause kidney disease. That what she says. She is correct on the meds. Doesn't know why I had to go to funeral yesterday. Not like I'm family or close friend. It was bitter cold outside.

She didn't ask but I feel like I should drive up ther and pin up a few of her slacks and get them them hemed. Then do it again till they all are hemed. But I am a bit nervice about patches of ice or mounds of snow. I drive the back roads. And it takes an hour and a half. I don't want to go. I know even petete slacks are too long so new ones have to be hemed also. I am so worn out that I don't car. I'm not going up there. Ther is one person that comes once a week that might pin up her slacks. And get them hemmed. If mom would pay her to do it. Mom would have negative reasons that won't work. If I told her.
