I did go see Mom and Dad today--it's Wed. The Seriquel is for behavior--not depression. I'm like you in that there's no way to diagnose Mom with depression---NO WAY! That's what I told Debbie when she called about the Lexapro! I don't want the veggie out and the lack of response. Anyway, today they were both in the dining room waiting for lunch when I got there--about 16 till 12. I waited to just see how long before they got lunch---it was like 12:27---nearly 45 minutes! They didn't seem to mind, but I got SO antsy waiting! That's nuts. Mom didn't want to wake up to eat. She was leaning to the right and forward in her wheelchair. I kept trying to push her up (and Miss Bobbie kept telling her to sit up, hold your hear up, etc---she's another patient that's a MESS!). Well, about the third or fourth time, Mom goes: Jean Marie if you don't stop that I'm going to hurt you! I cracked up! I told Judy that she either knew me--VERY doubtful---or she's just used to me being the mean one! LOL! Anyway, Dad was ok--not great. He was confused today. He said he was really tired, that he'd been up since 3:30, that he'd been in there with all women at midnight, etc. They were clean and Dad ate good. In fact he asked me if I was going to eat my bread (it was actually Mom's). I said no, and he ate it, too. Ok, I'm off to bed. We're heading to Louisville tomorrow for the Smile Train fundraiser that's Fri. Annie seems to be doing ok. She HATES the shots, but I figure you can add it to the list of things we all do that we don't like to do! LOL! If it works, then that's fine. She's up to 4 units now twice daily. They've increased her insulin each time I've taken her back in for checking. I've got to take her again on Mon. They're trying to fine out how much she needs. I'll be glad to get it stabilized, so I don't have to keep running her back and forth every couple of days to be checked. Ok, Love you all, Jeanie
