sunday
Now I am going throuh the "what next" phase of angst. Trying to anticipate what needs Dad may have if he can come home from the hosp. Mom thinks he will not. Labs are not in so we wait. He does not want anyone but Mom around so I can only catch details through her. And they are filled with tangents and embellishment. Working on living a moment at a time...with the outline of work and other commitments. I suck at doing this. Never have been patient when I didnt want to be. Who is I guess. I am going home to my house today to see my partner and our pets. I miss them. It has been lonesome without them all. Cheers

Sometimes it is difficult but we have to try to live \'in the moment\'. I know it\'s easy to say but each time we do we are not thinking what could or should have been because we can\'t change it. Now is what we have. Enjoy being with the ones you love.
try getting details from the nurses.... i know that the dr.\'s are hard to catch, but your mom\'s emotions are so involved, you may not be getting things correctly. and the dr. may not be doing all that he can, but without info, ?? i have been through this with my parents, my exes, and a son, plus friends, and been the patient, as you say. it all sucks. and being alone, i am sure that is even harder. you are in my thoughts and prayers, and so is your dad and mom, and partner. hugs to you all.
