| We visited Mom today and she didn't look as good as last time, but she was more "level" and she was "normal" in her tone of voice, her teasing, and her enjoying the food. Apparently, she has been in an aggressive mood of late the past few days according to Tammy, so they gave her more atavan and she would calm down. When we came in, she was sitting with a gent there, no conversation, just the two away from the rest of the crowd. We were told that she had napped earlier and had not eaten a lot. To my delight, she loved eating the food we cooked and brought. I just love "nourishing" her. She was joking and talking a lot. She also read the Thank You note Kim gave me to bring to Mom, which truly impressed me that she could still read!!! She has been less able to read, so this was a joy to hear. I brought my laptop, and we had a photo show of Kim's wedding, and our new Kitten, and then more events I had in my iphoto storage. This was like "background visuals" like the audio we bring. This may bear repeating. Oh, very funny story Tammy told us... Apparently, Mom calls people by whatever name she chooses, and now, all the men there are Gordy LOL! What a hoot. She truly needs our visits, as I need seeing her. It's been a very tough time lately accepting Mom as she is, and where she is. I have been doing a lot of crying. 'snuff for now - I'm exhausted.
