what an interesting weekend...lets start with the good news...Shannon has moved home. She was fully moved in on Friday. All that's left to do now is get her cat to a friends house (Darrick's deathly allergic so Milo couldn't move in with us) Jake always came home for the weekend. It was so nice to have both kids under on roof, even if it was for only a little while.
Now for a little sad news...It was discovered that dad has had another TIA (mini stroke) Mom called me Saturday morning and asked me to come up because dad was irate and very confused. Shortly after getting there I called in reinforcements, meaning Liz (who made it from stewartville in record breaking time) and Darrick. After...well actually it was Darrick's presents that made dad calm down (wish I could take credit but I cant) The Hospice nurse arrived shortly after. Dad was given new medication and finally calmed completely down and fell asleep. The entire family rallied and we spent most of the day there. Liz and I spent the night, which is a good thing because dad has became to much for mom alone. He is very weak and confused. Losing muscle fast. It's very hard for mom, let alone 2 of us to move him around. We have asked the hospice nurse to put him on the list for a bed at the hospice house. For now any ways. keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
