Mom

My 79 year old mother is in a bad way back in Pennsylvania. Brother Buzz drove down to see her in the hospital today with his wife Julia, who is a nurse. She lives in the Poconos.

Mom has always liked her pharmaceuticals. She has had a lot of serious illnesses including lupus and she might have done a little doctor shopping. The morphine on top of the Oxy on top of the Percocet has taken her for a very unpleasant ride.

It is my fervent hope that she can get through this episode with a minimum of pain and discomfort but it's not happening right now. Want her back to normal. Think good thoughts. You get one mom.
