He slept til 4pm and was ready for bed shortly after – I kept him up til 8pm.
All evening he stared at the wall, his look like someone trying to recall. Finally I asked if I could help him, was he wondering about something? Could I help him to remember? His returned gaze gave me shivers, his eyes void of life, no baby blues I’ve loved for years.
Washed him up and tucked him in – home care nurse will get him up at 11am – I’m grateful for those wonderful ladies.
(BTW, no more posting til I read each and every blog – I’m so sorry to have not since going. I get home by 3 so will try later this afternoon. Also, having issues with password protected blog so if I re-send all your invites, just chalk it up to my ineptitude on this computer!)
Hope his gaze will be more welcoming and warm today.
I love it when the aid comes to bath mom. Mom hates it. But one thing I don’t have to do.I hope you see those baby blues today.
Hi Jean – I’m glad to see you back posting, although I’m sorry to read about your scary encounter. I hope that you are feeling better now! I’ve been out of town for the past week, so I’m just catching up on the blogs myself!
Hi Jean,
Oh.. so heartbreaking to see that disconnected/far-away look on the people we love so much.
It’s good to hear that you have a home care nurse to help you …
