Today I went to see Mom. She looked really good when I first got there. They had just finished doing her dialysis and were giving her a bed bath. I guess they try to get them up for a little bit, but they have to use this thing called a hoyer to get Mom from the bed to a wheel chair. I hate it....it's so humiliating. She sat in her wheel chair for just a bit. I wheeled her around the NH and then she was so exhausted she couldn't hold her head up. I had to get someone to get her back in bed. My heart just breaks for her. If I didn't have to work for the insurance....I'd quit and bring her home.

I drove home crying again. I know she doesn't remember much, but I always wonder what she is thinking. I tell her I love her, kiss her and give her raspberries on the cheek and she'll tell me she loves me too.

Rick called and said they were on their way home. He and our family friend have loaded everything except for the large furniture and appliances and are bringing it all home from Mom's place in Florida. They were going to stay another day, but decided it was just to darn hot and decided to head this way today. Since they are pulling a U-haul trailer, they most likely won't be home until Thursday morning.

I cleaned out the garage when I got home from the route this afternoon so there will be plenty of space to unload everything. Not sure what he meant, but said I was going to be surprised at a few things....we'll see.
