Moving Day

 Hello friends!
So before I decided to decorate
for July 4th...which by the way
is still up.
I asked Bob to move this cabinet
from the kitchen to here.


Any eagle eyes out there will notice 
this was where I did my Cupboardscape displays.


Since all of the furniture in here is blue,
I thought it would be best to move it.


Now for the rest of the story...
pictures of the other side of our
keeping room.







Hope you enjoyed.

In other news,
Thursday around lunch I received
a call from the EMS from my mom's town.
Brian called from my mom's phone
to inform me she fell and possibly 
broke her shoulder.
They were transporting her to the hospital.
He asked where I lived and I told him,
I was a half hour from where they were
taking her.
I called my boss and immediately drove
to the hospital.
It is halfway from my house and hers.
I did beat the ambulance though.
She did break her right shoulder.
She is right handed.
She fell in her garage trying to clean
up after weeding her dahlias.
I then asked if they could do a scan
on her head along with the xray on
her shoulder.
They did and it came out negative.
My brother arrived around around 3.
My sister was in Phoenix.
They discharged her at 6:30.
Put her arm in a sling and I needed
then to take her to an orthopedic surgeon
the following morning to determine
if she required surgery.
They thought at the time it would just 
be a 6-8 week timeframe to heal
on its own because of where she broke it.
She would also need therapy.
We drove right to her house to pick up clothes,
and everything needed as she would
be staying at our house for the duration.
On the way back to my house I stopped
to get her a shake she wanted.
Well the next morning,
she was so weak she could not even walk.
I called the ambulance and they took
her back to the hospital.
They did more tests.
Her hemoglobin was 5.7 and normally
it should be between 13 to 15.
They gave her a blood transfusion.
Did another scan of her head.
Again came out negative.
Friday night she needed oxygen.
They took it off when she woke back up.
Her blood level was back down to 7.
She was bleeding or not producing red blood cells.
They are now opting on doing a scope down
her throat and a colonoscopy.
My sister does not want her to do either
because of her age.
My brother and I said it should be her decision
since she is of sound mind. 
Saturday and Sunday her vitals remained good.
She ate all of her meals and
went to the bathroom with the help
of the staff.
Her blood level remains at an 8.
Still need answers,
Am headed back to the hospital in a little bit.
Please say a wee prayer for my mom if you can.
Thank you.

Monday Blessings To All!
Janice

  3. Healing prayers for your mom. That's scary, since I'm close to 84. I have tripped on thorny vine behind my shed when working on the Wisteria removal. Heck, back there no one would have found me for probably over a week. Since I leave my car in the garage son may have thought I was at the grocery store or something.

  6. I WILL PRAY. Gosh she was doing so well. I really hate this. I hope they find out what is wrong, and it is not serious - that she just needs a vitamin or something.
