Visiting with Gma
Josie, Mom and I went to LaCrosse today to visit with Grandma. We got there about 10:30am. We chatted, played 500 Rummy, had lunch (Gma didn't eat very much) and visited a bit with Elton & Sharon. Grandma did very well until around 1:30pm or so. Then she seemed to get more confused and wanted to go home again. Even though earlier in the day we had talked about the fact that she would be going to a nursing home tomorrow for more rehab on her hip. We are hoping that she just needed some sleep since she had been better in the AM when we first arrived. When we left she seemed frustrated but I think we talked her into taking a nap before physical therapy. Tomorrow they will move her to a nursing home. Mom & Josie will be going back to the hospital in the morning to help with the move. We are hoping that she gets in at Rushford, but Houston is our second choice if they have a bed they could keep her in until Rushford has an opening. Nobody had indicated how the bones are mending but I suppose they don't even know anything until the 6 weeks are up. The bones & the mind are our primary concerns. We did have a good time playing 500 rummy this morning. I hate broken hips.... =( Stay tuned for more details.
