Hi everyone - in case you haven't heard, Janet has been experiencing ongoing nausea & vomiting to the point that she has been hospitalized. The cause is uncertain - perhaps a side effect of her brain surgery - but any slight movement seems to set it off. As well, she is having more pain in her sacrum and hip which is contributing to her discomfort. The plan is to get these things under control so that Janet can return home, and to use this time to organize the support that she will need when that happens.
A "care calendar" has been started to make it easy to communicate the ways in which Janet could use some support (right now, that is spending quiet time at her bedside) as well as to provide updates. If you are available to help out and would like to access the calendar, please let me know by email at worsemother@gmail.com . Know that the calendar is under construction and being updated for the next few days only as the needs will change.
I know that Janet would want you to know that, until last night, she was in a holding space where the call bell was the hand operated variety more commonly used to summon a desk clerk at a hotel!
I will blog as Janet requests. For the unembellished facts, do check the calendar.
