newnormal's Journal, 27 January 2021

Momma is finally home. Went home with hospice now but it will be a support and a tool to use to have the best life, day by day. As she said, she's not dying today, tomorrow or next week. So we enjoy each day as it comes and she has a lot of stuff to do. The level of care is scaled by her needs so she gets to stay as independent as she can/wants but has more medical oversight and a lot more help. We're using their company name Cornerstone instead of "hospice" because of how the words are viewed. Mom explained it that Hospice always sounds like you're going home to die. Cornerstone is going to help her live. I'm good with that.

Ate good for most of the day, ended up dipping into 2 small choc chip cookies because of the timing. Took FOREVER to get transport so we didn't get actual dinner.

BUT. I stayed steady and lost a little. Kinda impressed. Today will be an "on plan" day and tomorrow spend with my kids I think. I need to fill them in on Mom.

Have a great day buddies! I still have another coffee for my morning :)

More coffee is good!!! Happy to hear your mother is feeling better about where she is. It is always the best to know that our parents are in a good place. Hope you have a good day

Good news. Yes, I've always hated the word hospice. Glad she's happy with her new home and still willing to keep kicking at life.
