My grandmother is back at the nursing home. We don’t know how long she has left. I am pretty sure it’s sooner rather than later. When I first asked about hospice I was told she would have to be back at the nursing home 100 days before they could start hospice. I got a call [...]

Ds went back to school today. I am just waiting for the next stomach bug tho. It is going around the school very fast right now. I am betting it will hit this house around the 20th or 21st right as the kids are getting out for the Christmas break. Anyone want to place bets?!

My grandmother’s doing better. They took her off the oxygen Friday and her blood pressure has come down a little. They told me it’s still up b/c of the cough medicine they have her on. Still not able to speak tho.
Ds is home sick. My guess is a stomach bug. He’s throwing up and feels [...]
