We're Moving Mom !!! YIKES !!

I hope Mom will adjust to this new apt. Its larger and 16 units closer to the elevators and laundry room. Its a handicapped apt. Larger bathroom so she can take her walker in with her and a larger living room for her wheelchair.

We are all going early in the morning to make the move. Moms apt is full of her stuff. So much stuff that its going to take us all day I'm sure. Sisters and their husbands, of course me and my husband. We'll be busy. I expect Mom to be a little disoriented and confused at first. I think this will help her. in the long run. She cannot make the trip down the hall and has to wait for someone to get her for meals. She calls and says they have forgotten her. Then I talk until they come for her. By then she's all messed up and anxious. Its so much closer to the dining hall and activities. We're hoping for the best with this move. Not sure how long she is going to be able to stay in AL but for however long it is, I think this is going to be a good thing. Its a long walk for me when I have to haul things into the facility where she is now. Pushing her is starting to really hurt my bad back. I'm happy. I pray Mom will be happy. I'm keeping a positive attitude. See I'm smiling......

Love to all, Chris

I hope the move goes well. Moving is never much fun. I hope Mom does well with the new environment. It may take her a little bit to get used to it.

Love Pauline

Re: We're Moving Mom !!! YIKES !!

I really hope the move goes smoothly. You know what? I think that she may be out of sorts for a few days, I think God will allow her to adjust to it really well. May he hear my prayers.

Take Care
