 Update
I thought I would give you an update. Went to see my mom last night, it was hard. I immediately had flashbacks to the visits to the nursing homes seeing my grandfathers. Mom was standing by the door of her room starring out to the hall where we walked into. She looked so helpless. All I wanted to do was gather her and her stuff and take her home. But I know that won't make it any better. She was very fidgety and nervous. But she said that she was happy with the therapist, he was one we were trying to get an appt. for her with, but he didn't have openings until March 31. She was a little scared because some man who is in the men section of the ward came into her room while she was trying to take a nap, thankfully he didn't bother her. The lady who was in with mom had major issues and before she left yesterday morning she rifled through my mom's things while mom was in the bathroom and then sat one my mom's bed and peed on it. A bit unnerving for all of us. Thankfully for my mom that lady left. It was horrible leaving mom there, my dad told me as we walked out "you know it's the best thing, she can get the right meds and have a therapist to talk to and she will be home" I know that's true but still. My dad had to leave to go out of town today so I am going to see her tonight for about an hour, mom wants me home before it gets too dark. I'm sure I will be online after. Going to be odd having a quiet house. I'm still trying to decide if I want to come to work tomorrow or stay and home and sew and just do something fun, plus I had something happen at work which if I type about now will just get me upset but I will post about it tonight.
Also teri88 my dad is having me start to see a therapist. With my depression, anxiety, and panic attacks he wants me to be able to talk to someone before I get in bad shape.
