From The Past: July 17, 2007

Mom had her bone marrow biopsy this morning before I arrived at the hospital. She said it didn’t hurt near as much as last time. Thank goodness!

She took a shower, sat in a chair for a few hours, and put on her make-up. We sat together talking like nothing was wrong. It was nice, but I wish our talk could have been in her house with her healthy. It will happen though. I just have to be patient. She knows that she is in the best place possible right now and she knows that she isn’t well enough to be at home. I think that makes being away easier.

On our way home this afternoon, we saw this site on Rose Street:

Big dog, little balcony … not a good combination. The poor thing didn’t even have room to move.
