Jul. 3rd, 2025 10:33 pmToday Stroke cousin was released from rehab and sent back to her sisters' house. They said they could not handle her. There are only 2 of them and they are not strong so they can't lift her out of bed so she can make it to the bathroom. It takes 4 rehab staff to do it. It is hard to get 4 staff people together on one patient. PT says that stroke cousin is capable of getting up from bed...they worked on that in PT...but she does not want to. Oh boy. She was due to be released at 1 pm.
At 11 AM I get a call from lead sister. She is driving. They think my Aunt had a small stroke. Cancer cousin is in the ambulance with my Aunt. In the ambulance my aunt seemed fine. She was talking and could move her hands and feet. She knew all her kids names and even that the oldest son had died in January. They are keeping the aunt at the hospital and will run tests on her
Dad wanted to go over to the cousins tomorrow. I planned on making salad, potato salad and pulled pork. I told the cousins to text and tell me what is going on and if they want to be alone I will keep Dad home. No word and it is almost 11PM. I would have liked to make plans for the morning. Looks like I will garden and see what happens. The pulled pork freezes well.
