small rug on the frame
while I think about the Americana one
I have a lot of Karen's patterns
keep putting off hooking them
because I want to dye some wool in her colors
we all know how that's worked out over the past few years
so I started this one last night
changing the words/letters
thinking of a blue house
maybe
*****
going through closets again
very few things left of the parents
except sheets
wonderful Lands End flannel and cotton sheets
the worm ones are now rags
decent ones going to animal shelter
good ones to save and use
*****
Mom is not doing good
extreme pain in her neck and upper back
has been increasing over the past few weeks
making her anxiety worse
which makes her breathing worse
she was switched to using the Hoyer lift for transfers
a few weeks ago
on Friday she started using her new wheelchair
it has a high back and head rest
she looks much better in it
feels about the same
though I do catch her using the headrest
she's always been stubbon
"Johnny Bull" English she says
now she is resistant to any change
thanks so much for all your support
I know many of you have gone through this
heartbreaking scenario
your words have given me strength
