Granny's gone and done it again

[pertnear09]

Ah ha! You're right. I'm glad you said. I had no idea. Thought it was neat that they had it looking so good. Found this on Google. Saw the one at Walmart. View attachment 4002350

There's a little difference in the taillights between the 59 and 60 models.

Well. Granny, hopefully Tom is having a better day today. Hugs lady and don’t forget to take care of yourself too.
Hubs has been down in Cali to pick up more of our stuff that’s been stored at a friends house. Now all that’s left down there is my dog car. Kodi and Kira started at doggy daycare while hubs was gone. Thursday Kodi was there by himself, I left Kira at home so she could have a day of sleep, and Kodi could get some solo time. Well, that’s when NorCal started shake rattling and rolling (how are you doing h2o, did you feel anything?) and we got issued a tsunami warning. Got a call from the doggy daycare to come pick him up so away I went - and he was an office dog the rest of the day.
Also thought I’d share a decoration from the hospital Christmas tree…

Good Morning Granny Land. It's finally warmed up into the mid 40's. I'm napping a lot these days. I'll be glad to get the test on my thyroid again and see if that is the problem.

Heyyyyy

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Hey all, Ive decided to stay home today. The guilt is eating me alive but I do need a break. A rest I suppose and if he is like he was yesterday he wont even notice. According to his nurse today he is the same. So why do I feel so guilty? Better question, Why is he getting worse instead of better?

Because that is your heart granny! You are a selfless, loving, and compassionate woman I'm praying for you both

Scott declined so fast towards the end. I'm sorry if that's too much information. I would say more, but you are blessed to have him right now. Scott only lived to the age of 73. My goodness, I'm only 2 years away from that. We always thought he would live into his 80's easy since both parents did. Mine only in early 70's. The Alzheimer’s only took 31/2 years since diagnosis. Have to say, of course I knew something was going on a good 2 years before. He was considered early onset.
While you're resting today you can talk yourself through some things and be honest in how you think you could care for him. Is getting him from his room to the bathroom going to be good enough for him? Not sure if he had a place he liked to sit during the day. ? Him even trying to go to the bathroom could decline and he'll just go right there in the bedroom. Can you bathe him? Will he continue to take his meds for you? I had to start getting creative at how to sneak meds into Scott. I'll share later if you need to know. It was time consuming. What if he wandered outside..and it's cold now. I had to go walking and calling out to Scott many a time to find him outside. We were getting ready to put locks up high on the doors. But, he went downhill literally overnight. While the kids were in California. I had one daughter that was able to come the night he really crashed. Won't get into details, they're all different. I will say that we're pretty sure he had a stroke. Still up and wandering the next day for a bit though, but by afternoon that day he was in coma. I hear so many different stories. Let yourself know what's best for him..and you! Being a caregiver is such a hardship, not only physically, but mentally, as I'm sure you know by now. I'm glad to hear you're staying home today. Your mind will probably go a million miles a minute thinking of things.
Thinking of you all, praying.
