I think I am lost to my Mums memory,but thats ok.
I now visit Mum frequently since her move to the long stay area of our
local hospital,I am sure she has not recognised me once in the past 2
weeks or so.This is happening to Dad on and off and no recognition of
the rest of the family but was happy when my 2 grandaughters visited
but I think this is more the reason that they are children.
How do I know? she will hold no conversation with me as such but she
gives you regular quizzical looks.
Today I spent 2 hours with her and Dad was there also,I was sewing new
name tags into her clothes.
We took Mum to the table for lunch,I kissed her and said"I will sew
more tags my next visit"
'Dont bother she replies" Now this should have upset me but no because
that is a bit of Mums fiestyness coming out many times I heard her say
that.
Tommorows another day
