Mom is the Same Today

Today mom is the same, not talking, looking at us when we talk but not able to respond or move much. I have extended my stay by eight days until August 2nd and hope to see some results in the meanwhile.

Tomorrow we should know the results of the MRI. Here's hoping...

You all keep me sane with your emails and comments here. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much. Your support is so appreciated. We just came back this evening from visiting her again. Still the same. I played the fool with her, holding her hand and punching myself in the chin with it. It made her smile ever so slightly with my pretend shock. She didn't say a word but the whole time I sat with her, she stared right at me. I really hope she is aware how much she's loved.

Your mom is aware of how much she's loved - regardless of her responses or lack thereof ! It's amazing how the brain acts and doesn't, but looking at you and laughing, etc. are signs there's little pain, perhaps confusion, but at least she has company and attention, which translates to caring and love. Keep it up and know that she's aware and this will help both of you get thru this ! Have a great italian wine or champagne on me !

Oh she is aware Joe, I firmly believe it..She knows..I bet she got a kick out of you playin' with her at bedside.

my prayers continue for you and your family.
