I feel like I've been in isolation forever. I think it will take a week or more to catch up on everything.
I think Grandma aged me by 10 years. And at the same time, Mom looked 10 years younger when she got home last night.
The first part of the sitting time was good. husband and I decided that we would do whatever Grandma wanted to do. And of course, she wanted to go to the Casino....everyday....for hours and hours and hours. She was happy and she was having fun. She was making all sorts of friends. But that all came to an end Sunday night. Grandma came down with a bad case of Shingles - on her face.
A sick Grandma is a very mean Grandma. She was in pain, she didn't like the pain medications so she refused them. She was nasty to the eye doctor. We needed to make sure the shingles weren't in her only good eye. She gave him a really hard time. And the doctor smiled through it all. At least she answered his questions. She refused to talk to the ER doctor!
Well, at least my time is done. Mom and Dad are home and can now take care of Grandma.
So, I'm off to see how many posts I can read between catching up at work.
