Reality Check

Mom told me Friday that she is sleeping more. Two or more naps most days. She said she will work for a little bit and then get into Dad's big red chair for a short nap. She said it reminds her of how Dad was.

Mom also told me she has started having pain in her abdomen. She thinks it has started since she saw Nurse Christy on Wednesday. She notices it in the night, but doesn't know if the pain is waking her up or if she is just waking and then becomes aware of the pain.

Mom is eager to get the house finished. And she hopes she can finish reading Bonhoeffer before she passes. I reminded her that even if she doesn't get to finish the book, she can always look Dietrich up in heaven and he can tell her the rest of the story.
