Most of you know that we had to make the difficult move to Cherry Hill nursing home with Dad about a month ago. He had improved from his fall and is walking around quite a bit. He seems to be in fairly good spirits and one of the aides told us he played his "French Harp" for quite a while one day last week. Taking everything into consideration, he seems to be adapting very well and the folks at Cherry Hill have been super thus far.
Mom is staying with us most of the time. Jasmine stayed with her at our house last week while we went to the mountains. She is doing fine and spent her day today paying some bills and cooking cornbread and turnip greens. She is enjoying going with me to Ladies Class on Wednesday and seeing the grandkids and great-grandkids a lot more than she was accustomed. I know she would like to be home, but I think she is quite relieved in a way not to be under so much stress with keeping up with Dad. Some of us have been getting her over to see Dad at least every other day.
We are very thankful that everything is working out so well thus far. One could never ask for better parents than mine. I hope I can be half as good for my kids.
