Happy Weekend

 So spring is getting closer. I love seeing the flowers popping up and blooming. I am so wanting to work in my yard but I am on call this weekend and have patients to see. Maybe next weekend...
 Yesterday was mom's 79th birthday and we are celebrating it tomorrow with a get together at her house. Sad things... She don't remember that we are coming and more than likely, tomorrow night she wont remember that anyone was there, and there will be a lot of anyone's there. We are trying to keep her at home for as long as possible but it is getting closer to where she will require 24 hours supervision. I don't know what we will do when it gets to that point.
 It is an adjustment, changing roles from child of the parent to parent of the parent. I am sure most everyone who reads this has been there or are going there. It's tough not letting her make 100% of her decisions but that's where we are. About the only decisions she makes it such as when to get out of bed, what to wear and what to eat. But it is something. So sad. 
 Hope all is well and you and your family are happy and healthy...
