Finally arrived at hospice at 3 o'clock today. Everything was suppose to be set for 10 this morning but holiday weekend, no notes in her file, all the paperwork not done, someone forgot to schedule the ambulance and on and on.
The facility is absolutely wonderful. Very soothing and peaceful.
I have to tell you all this. My mom is 89. And has been totally out of it for weeks and making no sense what so ever when she talked. Either we could not understand her at all or the sentences were so garbled there was no way to follow what she was trying to say. Well, today while waiting for the ambulance she informed me and my DD that she was furious because Ben Carwright had not come to see her and none of his sons had come either. We discussed Hoss and Little Joe and Adam. She told us all about those boys growing up and some of their adventures. She said Ben sure had a hard time with those boys. As silly as that sounds we discussed the Cartwright as if they really existed, it was the cutest conversation, and we laughed until we cried.
Momma always had a crush on Ben. She thought he was the handsomest man alive and I remember growing up and never missing that show because Momma said we had to watch.
My daughter and I will remember that conversation forever and it will always make us smile.
Life is good folks, enjoy it while you can. Watch TV if thats what you want, plant your gardens, admire the flowers, hug your loved ones and have silly conversations.
