A Day of Quiet

My elderly mother *seems* to be staying lucid in her thoughts now that the Indometacin has been halted (see yesterday's post for more details if interested). I am still not sure if her improvement will be long-term or if it is temporary. As with most things in life, I will hope and pray for the best outcome (she recovers and is fine) and instead prepare for and expect the worst (her death).

The hosptial situation these past 24 hours have been quite uneventful. My mother rested. She ate adequate amounts of food. She drank some fluids. She walked to the bathroom unaided. The sheer NORMALCY of this past day itself is AMAZING to me. I feel somewhat like a fool when I say the normalcy caught me off guard and I have been feeling rather disjointed in my thoughts and plans ever since.

I simply hope the favorable outlook continues.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
