The hospital just called. Mom's right should is dislocated. It must have happen when she tripped coming out of the bathroom. Or when she fell, when the ambulance was called. Are my guesses? They are going to put it back in place tomorrow morning non surgically.
No wonder she cried out when they tried to to turn her on her right side on Saturday.
Today many things went better. She would not eat for Brian, this morning. She did eat a little for the hospital. Mom told Bonnie who all the people were in the pictures, and asked Bonnie to read the Bible to mom. Brain and his family came in and she ate some more. He sang to her. She was alert when Bonnie came in in the after noon and stayed alert until at least 2.25 hours. YEAH! She asked to go home but Brian did not ask her where home is. (Oh well, I only know because of Grandpa M.) You are never quite sure where a dementia patients memory is unless you ask. I am encouraged!
I have a LONG list of call to make for mom tomorrow, before heading over there. Better call it a day so I can get on them early.
