Cathy: Cookie fragment in the desk drawer!I'll get right on it! Half a mini "Snickers" bar on the file cabinet next to the plant. What?? You didn't finish it! You can't just leave it there unfinished! Oh, for crying out loud... Jack-O-Lantern cupcakes in the coffee room. Now what?? You said we could have one and then you never gave it to us. Fine, I'll get you a cup cake! Also, You never got back to the bagel you started...also, don't forget the three caramels in the side pocket of your puse...also, you need to deal with those last few chips..Enough! How can one person be so negligent about the "to do" lists and so conscientious about the "to eat" lists? Don't forget to take care of that biscotti....
So sorry lightenup. I too know how it feels when a lot more could have been done to save a parent, but somebody dropped the ball. In my father’s case, it was a doctor who failed to diagnose cancer until 5 weeks before death. The good news is that sooooo much can be done to rehab folks who have had strokes today, that your Mom, whom I assume is still relatively young, will probably regain most of her abilities. It also sounds like as soon as the rehab was started, she responded really well. Don’t give up hope!!! (((((Huggs))))).
