Today was just a partial treatment for mom. It wasn't one of her better days today. It is amazing to see how her posture, demeanor, look and even her voice changes when she is having a difficult day. Her bad day started before her chemo treatment. All of the nurses and the doctor could immediately tell that today was not a good day. This afternoon was a bit better for her. We are hoping that tomorrow will be a better day than today.
Last week, one of the assistants in the treatment room received a couple of pot holders that my mom crocheted. I went to see Renee today to have her call in some meds for mom and she told me how much she liked the pot holders and was so happy to get them. I had to laugh and tell her that I had half a drawer full of them. I could even put in orders for different sizes or colors. I know I have probably taken all of my pot holders for granted. Seeing the happiness that little gesture made for Renee was so nice.
Mom continues to show appreciation to all of the wonderful people who are taking care of her. It is amazing to be able to touch someone's life with something given from the heart.
Very nice, Ida is having a good day after not feeling so well. How amazing that she continues to help people around. Temperatures are dropping here in NE. Best wishes and prayers!
