More of the same…but different

Michael had shoulder replacement surgery today and he’s doing well.  Mom’s talked to him and he’ll be discharged on Wednesday.  Mom’s not feeling well…she hasn’t been able to eat anything.  If she does eat, she throws it up.  Not good.  I’d really like to know if hospice will do anything for her except let her suffer.  It’s not good that she’s losing 3 lbs a weeks.  If she’s not taking anything in, how is she still having bowel movements?  Why can’t they at least give her a B12 shot?  Something!  Lately they only call and don’t stop by.  I mean, I understand they want to make money, but their purpose it so make Mom comfortable.  She’s not comfortable!

I’m hoping beyond hope that the military will get in gear and give me a medical retirement or separation so I can go home and be with M&M.  Whatever happens with me, I just want to be home and worry about job hunting later.
