Mom was still doing good today. But she still has some unresolved problems. She is upset that she was hallucinating. Most of the hallucinations she remembers, or sort of remembers. Now she doesn't trust herself when something different happens, ie. when someone says something & she can't see anyone. It could be someone talking out in the hall or out of her range of vision.

She still has some double vision but that seems to be clearing up now too.

This morning she went for a liver & kidney ultra-sound. They are trying to check everything.

A doctor came in while I was there to talk with all of us. It seems that mom has a couple of fractured vertebrae. When that happened they don't know. It could have been any one of the falls she's had over the past few weeks. She has also had a stroke that we didn't know about. Again they didn't know for sure when that occurred. Perhaps the stroke was the cause of her hallucinations. We were so stunned we couldn't think of any questions to ask at the time.

That's it for now.

Hi Pat,
I put "tolebooth" in Google search and it brought me here. I knew it was a great search engine but that blew me away.
Looks like you're having more than your share of stress (as usual) but I have faith that you can handle it. Just wanted you to know you're in my prayers.

God Bless,

Dick
