Last night wasn't good either. Don't know if you remember me tellilng you that Mom had broken down in tears on a Friday when we were going for lunch. Well.......I guess last night was my turn. Things started going wrong and I know my Mom was touching areas of the tubing that she was not suppose to. I'm so worried she'll get an infection.
It got the best of me and I cried. I cried so hard all the way home and cried myself to sleep. I look a fright today...lol. Looks like my eyes are so puffy from all the crying...but I needed to get it out. I do feel better this morning. Mom did really well last night and thinks she'll do much better alone....she has to learn to do it alone anyway. Tonight I will be staying home. This has been one adventure I would never wish on anyone. So much stress anyway, but with an 86 year old......for me...is even more stressful..because she is my Mom. I guess things will be getting better now, because it's been pretty rough so far. Thanks for being so supportive. Love ya all very much.

I'm so sorry that this has been so hard on you and your Mom. I hope that when your Mom starts feeling better that you'll decide that it was all worth it. She'll just have to be very, very careful about keeping things clean because infection is a big worry. Wish that I could just give you a great big hug, my friend. I'm just a phone call away if you need to chat.

Janet, I have cried so many time myself for one thing or another related to Gary's illnesses and treatments. It is perfectly normal!!! And it won't be the last time you cry yourself to sleep either. I just keep saying (to you and to me) things will be OK, and they will. Things might not turn out like we want them to, but they will turn out how they are supposed to. Just like kids that we can't protect from everything, neither can you protect your mom from every possible problem. It will be what it is. What will happen will happen. Things will work out, one way or another.
