The Joys of Her Life


My niece and nephews, Mom's grandkids, have been the joy of Mom's life for the last 24 years. From the left, Jake, Matt, Mom, Dad, Mike, and Andrea. Your challenge is to scroll through the old pictures and see if they have any Magee in them. Find the Magee relative that most resembles each grand kid.
Mom's pain seems to be escalating a bit and we called the hospice nurse this evening to investigate our options relative to increased dosage. The nurse suggested doubling up on the oxycodone dose and that seems to have helped by the time Mom went to sleep this evening.
Uncle Bob, Aunt Penny and Cousin Ruth brought dinner over this evening. Scalloped potatoes and ham was the main dish. I don't usually like scalloped potatoes but I had two helpings of these.
Folks from church came and mowed the lawn today and trimmed the bushes today. It was all done in about 15 minutes as they have a professional lawn service business. I am continually amazed by the support group my mother and father have around them through the Immanuel Lutheran and Word of Life communities. It is making this time so much easier for all of us.
