Well, we had some good news here today ... my younger sister had a follow-up cat scan and neurosurgeon visit and he says her brain looks great ... so, for the next month, we slowly wean her off the brain numbing drugs and hope no seizures come .... if not, she'll be able to drive by Christmas and get a job in the new year ... so she's pretty happy.
Mom's doing pretty well too. She's settling into her new life which includes some new annoyances (like oxygen and a walker) but her spirits are good.
Me? Well, I'm just hoping to get thru these upcoming holidays without gaining weight! Wish me luck on that one.
Here's hoping we all have a safe and relatively uneventful holiday season.
Happy Turkey Day to all!!

I am writing a daily blog on my Alzheimer's caregiver website that shows the lighter side of caring for someone with dementia.
Please pass this link along to anyone you feel would enjoy it.
