After eleven days in ICU, Mom was moved to a long term acute care hospital yesterday.
I spent all day with her yesterday, and then the boys and I went to see her after school today. We were there when they brought her dinner. GAG!!!! I’m not kidding, I almost lost it.
Her dinner was tomato soup that was so thick it looked like they just opened the can and threw it in the bowl, 2 small packages of crackers, something called blushing pears – canned pears with something red sprinkled all over them, a sandwich from awful looking white bread, the thinnest cheese slice I have ever seen, and a thin slice of some sort of lunchmeat, water, and milk. She ate about 4 bites of soup, ¼ of the sandwich (only because I told her she had to prove she could eat to come home), and two bites of the pears. The face she made while eating was excruciating to watch.
Poor Mom.
