We sprung Mom this morning! She had been able to dress herself and walked -- slowly and with the help of a walker -- from the carport into the house. A caregiver arrived shortly after and helped us with the bits we felt uncertain about. She has been in pain and wanting a pain pill -- got one this afternoon. I am a bit concerned about addiction, she not so much. She feels that at her age addiction to pain pills isn't such a bad thing.
Tomorrow we go to look at Board and Care Homes and Assisted Living facilities. I think this will be hard for all of us. This is a major life change. She is probably taking it better than Pam and I. We are hoping to have her moved in by mid-week and fully settled by the time I leave on the 5th.
Wish us luck. We will need it.
