MOTE QUIZ
Which is Judith?
22548. judithathome - 8/28/2007 9:33:55 PM I'm in the sailor shirt... 22549. jexster - 8/28/2007 9:55:16 PM Dang! I was bettin on the plaid dress...I wanted her boyfriend
Shoulda known..you'd win 22550. judithathome - 8/29/2007 5:39:47 PM Update on my son: he's doing much better...his short term memory is improving dramatically. The test they did yesterday showed no bleeding in the brain but they think there may be a small clot somewhere...today he's having an esophogeal (sp?) echocardiogram at another hospital and will be back in ICU at the other one by this evening.
If things don't show up on this test, he may be released and go home...unless we can reason with him and get him to check into a rehab facility. He's still refusing to do that and they've set up scheduled visits from home care physical therapists for him.
He's completely stopped being combative and acting like an ass. This has been a terrible week...it's good to see him acting normally, finally. 22551. arkymalarky - 8/29/2007 10:55:46 PM Have they decided what it is? A stroke? I hope he continues to do well, with you struggling with your foot. I can't imagine what a rough week it's been. 22552. arkymalarky - 8/29/2007 10:56:59 PM Speaking of feet...those shoes you bought me looked FABULOUS with that pantsuit I got. I got lots of compliments on that outfit at work, from kids and colleagues. 22553. thoughtful - 8/30/2007 2:02:11 PM Best hopes for your son's return to good health soon! 22554. vonKreedon - 8/30/2007 3:49:55 PM Oh man, Judith, best of luck to you and your son getting back to the best of health. 22555. judithathome - 8/30/2007 3:54:08 PM I am so exhausted from this, I came home from the hospital last night and got upset that a show I's set to tape wasn't taped...not until this morning did I realize it isn't even ON until tonight.
Arky, aren't you glad you bought that suit now? I knew those shoes were perfect for it! 22556. judithathome - 8/30/2007 3:57:48 PM VonK, great to see you!
We're ALL hoping Leslie will be coming home today...the nurse is letting him sleep this morning until the neurosurgeon gets there. Of course, she can't tell us anything until the doctor reads the report and tells Les so it's just as well she's letting him sleep...hmmmmmm, come to think of it, that may be her plan! ha! 22557. judithathome - 8/31/2007 1:08:12 AM My son has agreed to go to rehab and he'll be transferred over there tomorrow morning.
I feel like sleeping for a week... 22558. arkymalarky - 8/31/2007 2:37:06 AM That's great Judith. 22559. judithathome - 8/31/2007 5:13:00 AM I think you know what a relief this is, you and Mags and MsNo...and everyone else.
I have been in hell the past 10 days. 22560. judithathome - 8/31/2007 7:31:35 AM Over the past 10 days, I have had to deal with my ex-husband because my son has been hospitalized with a stroke.
My ex has been rude to me beyond belief and I have tried to act decently toward him because I know he is upset about our son's condition.
I have thought the entire time that the fact I was nice to my ex has gone unnoticed by anyone until today when my son commented to me (after his father left for the day) that he appreciated the fact his father and I were getting along (ha!)...I said to him that it was not my fault we were at odds and my son said "I know." And then he said something that meant the world to me...he said "I've always known."
22561. Magoseph - 8/31/2007 10:09:12 AM What I know about exes is this---some do a good job of demonizing you with your kids or some cannot however much they try. In the later case, they resent you and that seems to be your situation with your ex. You are lucky as it turns out.
It’s really a relief to know that no clot was found, Judith.
22562. judithathome - 8/31/2007 6:19:48 PM Oh, they found a blockage but said they can do a stent in it at a later date.
This morning he is still in line with the plan to be transferred over to the rehab facility. He should be there by this evening.
My foot is bothering me from all the walking I've done this week so I am staying home today...I talked to him and he said he just wants to sleep, anyhow, so for me to stay here...which I will gladly do. 22563. Max Macks - 8/31/2007 7:31:51 PM Gee Judit , didnt know you had a son
sorry to read the above . hope he will get well soon.
what happened to your foot
I'v been away from the Mote , need t catch up on
things 22564. prolph - 9/1/2007 1:18:26 AM august in the mote has been filled with sorrow and pain but you are all still here;a little hemingway--
the world breaks everyone and afterward many are many are strong in the broken places. but those tat will not break it kills. it kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially, if you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will no special hurry,
22565. anomie - 9/1/2007 3:13:40 AM Hope things start looking up for you Judith. I think you're holding up better than I would under similar circumstances. 22566. prolph - 9/1/2007 7:52:27 AM alas i have been lurking only because my eyesight is getting worse,
then i got a letter from the my eye people telling how to magnifiy
letters on either cp or mac, it has made it much easier to read, so
