It is still a house on a hill…

 

Big and little changes since November with Mom. We finally had a unanimous vote, meaning Dad agreed or accepted that it was necessary to get more total care for Mom.

Last Friday, Jan. 14, 2011, my aunt and I took Mom to ‘lunch’ at the above ‘castle’. She said, after we were seated, “Oh, I have been here many times.”  There was no questioning, no “where am I, when are we leaving…”, nothing of the sort. It went so smoothly we could not believe it. She is interacting with others, went on a local bus sightseeing trip, and then out to a place for ice cream.

More activity than we had been giving her lately!

It hasn’t been a week yet, but the transition, for her, has been incredibly non-eventful.
