My mom, Doris, is doing much better. She was sitting up and talking when Zoe and I saw her yesterday. We got her laughing. We called today and the nurse said she was doing much better and could go home tomorrow. That's the good part. Unfortunately we are not sure where home is going to be. She has been living in an assisted living house. She has been able to walk and could get around by herself with the aid of a walker. Her legs and knees have been hurting more and more and just recently she hasn't been able to get up by herself and needs a wheelchair. The problem with where she lives is they can't get her into the wheelchair. They aren't strong enough. She is going to have to go to a nursing home where she can get more care. That is something my brother Terry is taking care of. This sucks.

update: My daughter Katie visited mom this evening. Apparently mom will be getting some physical therapy to get her walking again. That would be a very,very good thing. I need to find out more.
