Watermelon

Just talked to Mom. Lisa and Kathy were sitting with her and enjoying smoothies and fresh watermelon. She was really liking the watermelon.

Mom has been less comfortable lately. Most of it is probably from being in bed for so long, but it really hurts to move. And it hurts not to move. She has been adamant about not taking morphine because she doesn't like the way it makes her so sleepy. The nurses are trying an ibuprofen-like drug today that seems to be helping a bit. Kathy told me she seems more comfortable.

Mom is weaker everyday. The nurses said today that I should try to come out as soon as possible. They don't expect her to remain lucid for much longer. I'm looking at flights now. I'll let you all know when I have a schedule.
