Pigs must be flying cause I had a nice conversation with the ex about the phone and Eric. She had gotten no messages and was wondering why I hadn't called. So she said she would get her phone looked at to see what the matter is. Do I believe her? Who the hell knows, sorry to say. She did state that her dad had taken a turn for the worse, but it seems he is left home alone since she said he won't pick up the house phone. I did realize why she didn't put him in a facility. All of his money would be funneled into his care and then she would have to get a job. She may be nuts, but she ain't stupid. Through all of this I did get a chance to actually talk with Eric. It's been a few weeks.
My Mom still can't use her right hand, but can raise the arm. She's not talking as much and I don't know why. Yes and no questions she'll just shake her head, but more complex she'll answer. This has started since last weeks TIA. So at her meeting next week I'll ask that she start speech therapy since if she looses that she'll really go down hill. Talking to my brother today I told him it's time for Mom to go. She's just fading way bit by bit and it's a real shame.
