Signing off for a few days........

Post by starfire »

I have to turn in my router tomorrow and I guess it will be in the morning since I have to go out then anyway.

I'll be leaving for Pa. Friday morning. Should arrive home in Pa. sometime Saturday.

I'm anxious to get it over with. Mom has fallen twice in the last 3 days. No particular reason as far as I can tell. She just seems to be weaker and weaker little by little.

I am having nausea and feeling a bit lightheaded but I'm sure it's anxiety.

I am dropping Mom off at my daughter's house Friday morning. My sister will be flying in Friday evening and will fly with Mom to Pa on Saturday. We thought it would be easier on her to fly there.

After the latest fall I am trying to get a friend of my daughter's to stay with her Friday until my grandson gets home from school.

Lord, I hope all goes well.

Sorry to dump all this here but guess I just needed to get it out.

I should be online again by Sunday.

Love, Shirley

All the best to you Shirley - will be sending lots of positive thoughts your way. You're probably right on target suspecting your nausea is due to stress. Don't forget to take good care of yourself - look forward to hearing from you when you get back.

Warm regards,
Kari

Shirley,

I hope everything goes as smoothly as possible.

It's possible that you might be coming down with a virus. Take good care of yourself.

"See" you on Sunday.

Love,
Tex

I hope you have a good trip. You're wise to have your mom fly. It will be less stressful for you and better all around.

Dear Shirley,

Thinking about you and your mom. Look after yourself, too. I agree that there my be a connection between stress and lightheadedness.

Safe travels Shirley back to good old PA. Best bet to have mom fly and it will be much easier on both of you. You are in my prayers daily.

Love, Maggie

Hope you will be safely in PA when you read this, and Mom and your sister, too. Hope you are feeling okay and were finished with the light-headedness before you hit the road!
