She has at least three chaplains who visit her. One is a woman who said we can have coffee together anytime, so nice. The male chaplains are Scott and Fred. Scott works with hospice and called this morning to say he is keeping his distance, but checked in with the social worker on site who reports Mom is “the same.” Scott said he misses seeing her and I can relate.
An hour or two later, Fred called after he visited Mom today. He said she was “dressed up, sitting in her wheelchair,” and nodded when he asked if she’s feeling well. He talked to her for a while and then recited the Lord’s Prayer, to which she answered “amen.” He said he nearly fell out of his chair. We were both excited that she was so engaged today. You never know.
