Mom fell this morning and broke her shoulder (humerus). She will follow up with the orthopedist this week. She's in a sling and nobody from the ER mentioned the word surgery so that is a good thing. God bless whoever created the meds ending in -codone because she is resting comfortably.

I pray this is false news
But in case of a threat, EVACUATE.

Pat
Continues to deteriorate despite compassionate care. Personally, I remain impressed by the memory care staff and all they do every single day. If they don't know my name, they simply say "you're Pat's" and that is touching since dementia makes you feel adrift at sea. There are so many scares and tears, but there are humorous moments too. Today Johnny kept talking about painting, but admitted giving it up. One of the dining room attendants directly asked him what he used to paint and didn't get to hear after a delay. No clue if this is real or imagined, but Johnny's eventual lone sentence was "I painted people naked."

Pat is good
She thought she needed to leave immediately to "drop some babies off" God knows where, but she was easily distracted and forgot about it. She kissed Johnny on the cheek and told him I was her daughter. I guess his hearing isn't great because he raised his voice a bit and asked her, "She's your doctor?" Then Mom and I were laughing.
