Jim & I went to see Mom & Dad on Sat. around 2:30. Mom was in bed but talking and awake. Dad in his wheelchair, in the room, beside her bed. Mom doesn't know me. I kept patting on her and calling her Momma and she finally said, "Did you call me Momma?" and started crying. Then of course, I started crying. Jim came over and I said this is Jim and Mom acted like she knew him and kept saying, "Oh Jim, Jim". Dad talked with Jim about the ballgame and seemed good, but every now and then says something crazy. He said Mom wants to see Mrs. Keach but could never make the trip and then said something about Jamie being down the hall. When we got ready to leave, Dad followed us all the way down both halls, and it scared me that he would say he wanted to go with us, but he didn't. He just told us to be careful going home. It's just heartbreaking. Do they give Mom the meds to keep her from being violent? I just HATE the meds!!! I just think it's cruel to keep them sedated to make their job easier. I HATE the whole thing, and know there is not one thing I can do about it!
