Five Magees! You can barely see Mom in this picture as she is holding Keith. Darryl is in front, Jimmy on the left, and Dave is on the right. Speaking of the Magees, Darryl, Lou, Jimmy and Kathy came to see Mom yesterday. They drove in from Iowa and spent a couple hours visiting. It was great to see them.Mom had a good day. She was grimacing a lot less today. I think it helped that she did not have any appointments and did not need to go anywhere so she could focus on resting. Shari and I have been working on optimizing the living room set-up to make it easiest for Mom. She now has two reclining chairs that she is pretty comfortable in - with pillows supporting her. One of them is a lift chair which means it can tip all the way forward and all the way back making it easy for her to get out. The other is the leather lazy boy type chair that is a little more comfortable for sleeping.
From the time she could walk and talk mom has been taking care of her family. It is an honor and privilege to take care of her now. Love, Deb
