Surgery

November 17th, 2006 at 10:22 am

My mom wound up getting admitted after her doctor's appointment. The side of her bone is paper-thin after the tumor eating away at it, so they're hoping to do surgery Monday to put a steel rod and some bone cement into her thigh to stablize the bone.

It's probably best she's in the hospital since she's not supposed to walk. So far I can't tell what kind of spirits she's in, but we had a couple of frank talks which seemed to indicate she's got a pretty realistic, practical view of what's going on.

As for getting along, it's going OK I guess.

    Isn't it funny how moms can irritate us as no one else can? Just take a deep breath and be as helpful as you can, but without exhausting yourself.

    I think sick people are really too preoccupied to think about what is convenient to other people. It honestly doesn't occur to them. And it probably wouldn't bother you so much if she wasn't like that all the time, even well.
