A Night in the Hospital
My Mom is in the hospital. This is the second time in two weeks. Last time they put two stints in her heart. This time she has pneumonia. Hopefully she will be going home today. I stayed with her all afternoon yesterday and all night. Hubby picked me up this morning and let me tell you I am one tired puppy. A great nurse can make all the difference in a hospital stay. Moms nurse last night was awesome. She really listened to Mom and I. She answered all of our questions. And really cared what my Mom was going through. Mom also had her the last time she was in the hospital. The nurse even found and brought in one of those reclining chairs so I could sleep in that. Not that I slept much at all, but I was able to catch a nap here and there. I did not get a chance to thank her for being so caring. You could truly loves being a nurse. Our E.R. nurse was a good one to. She went out of her way to get Mom something to eat last night. She was starving!!! I am going to take a nap. Have a great day.

Oh gosh--I'm so sorry. What a hard time of it. I'm glad the care was awesome--it's such a scary time, it's essential to have people who care around to diminish some of that fear factor. I'm glad you mom had that level of care.
I'll add her to the prayer list and hope for healing and rest.
Take care of you, eh?
