On Life Support - No, I Don’t Mean the Blog
I’m going to try and keep this short and to the point, but it has to be said. (Especially from the intensive care unit visiting room, no less.)
Mom’s back in the hospital (yet again). She has been since June 4th. For legal reasons, I cannot go into detail as to exactly what happened, but needless to say, she has been on life support since that date. I’m currently attempting to obtain health care and property power of attorney through the courts so her affairs can be tended to since she is no longer physically capable of doing so. Mom’s cognitive abilities are still intact; it’s just her body that is failing her (despite the best efforts of the doctors, nurses and her own rock-solid force of will).
Obviously this can be excruciatingly hard on a family - my family is no exception, which is why I’ve been the one tasked with handling everything related to Mom’s medical care and legal needs. I doubt she’ll be coming home any time soon, since the hospital is going to transfer her to a long-term acute care facility for further treatment and rehabilitation. However, I will do my best to ensure that I can get back to a regular posting schedule, finish the redesign of this site, and honor my contractual obligations with my clients while caring for the rest of the family.
