When I went back up to see dad last night he was weaker then he was on Tuesday. But he was still better then he was over the weekend when he gave us all a real scare.
I did not make it in to see him today. My out of state brother Kelly is now here and I knew he and others were going to go see dad and that is a good thing. I knew dad would have plenty of visitors and I was so very wore out and tired so I slept most of the day while the kids were at school.
Since my out of state brother and sister are both here some of us gathered at my sister Chris place and enjoyed visiting. That was nice. I like being with that side of the family and wish it could happen more often. They are a fun bunch.
The wind is blowing and the roads are drifting. We had a bit of a hard time getting up our long drive way tonight. There is already a 2 hour school delay for tomorrow. I guess we might get a few more inches of snow someone said so that with this wind might cancel school tomorrow.
I kind of feel guilty because I did not get up to see dad but yet I got out and about. My mom said he is not eating as well as before but he is still doing better then he was. She tried going to see him and saw the snow drifts and got worried and came home she said. But she talked to the nurses on the phone about him. He is still in CCU and I'm kind of glad because that means he gets better and more care then he would if he was in the regular part of the hospital.
Someone said that today dads Parkinson's tremors were not very bad. I have been noticing that. I hope my brother Gary or Duane can get our drive way plowed out tomorrow so we can go see dad. My parents have a house back the same long drive way as we do so both her and us are stuck back this drive way. My husband has 4 wheel drive but will be taking it to work which just leaves us all with moms mini van which will not make it through those drifts. I don't think dad would like it if mom had to stay away from the hospital for more then 1 day although he would be understanding of it. Him and mom keep talking mushy to each other. I suppose she needs to get to the hospital so they can speak mushy to each other. Ewww, it is so sweet and so yucky at the same time. LOL. Old people speaking mushy. I guess that is good after so many years of marriage they can do that. Because of his Parkinson's his speaking mostly consist of 1-3 words sentences and it is a struggle sometime to understand him but his mind is still sharp.
