It amazes me at the amount of support I’ve received in less than 24 hours after the doctor’s visit. I really appreciate it.
When I woke up today, I had to ask if it was a dream. After I asked, I recalled a vivid dream I had where I was in school but it was the weekend. I had to check the calendar to make sure I hadn’t really gone to school. haha
Anyway, she seems to be doing ok. She’s watching the birds my dad’s many feeders attract. I joke with my dad and say if they ever need to go into a nursing home, he’ll be "the birdman." But now, with my grandma, I don’t find the joke as humorous. But I think Dad doesn’t mind. He’s always been like a big kid.
Our biggest challenge is getting my grandmother to the restroom. The wheelchair fits in the bathroom but just barely. And the bathroom is small as it is without a wheelchair and two people. My bathroom in the basement is a lot bigger. Too bad we can’t get to it.
When my mother called her sister yesterday, my aunt had already gotten a call about the test results, she already knew before Mom called her. I have to say that was fast. As I said, my mother, aunt and grandmother are strong. They seemed ok after the initial shock.
My brother…he was at a friend’s birthday party when Mom called him. She wanted him to come home but she had to tell him why. He came home and we told him a bit more. I could tell he was trying very hard not to cry. He’s fifteen and I think at his age, crying may be a sign of weakness. So he got angry. I can’t say it was a shock. But loud noise makes me nervous. Anyway, back to my brother. He sat in the van for a while after his little outburst. I don’t blame him for it. He called Dad from the garage on his cell phone and said he didn’t want anyone looking at him or talking to him when he came inside and walked to his room. I can’t blame him. I think if my brother hadn’t said something we may have asked him and in turn triggered more tears. He went back to his friend’s birthday party but didn’t spend the night. My mother thought he should go. He came back in a bit of a better mood.
My dad…I think after we told him, he may have been feeling a bit angry too.
I think I’ve covered everything. Documented I guess I could say. I think I do this to have something to remember and maybe this can help someone who may be going through the same.
God please continue to give us strength.
