Bad week for Parents
Dec. 28th, 2008 12:36 pm1. My folks were to come out here for a last night of Chanukah dinner.
My stepfather just called. Mom's in the emergency room being check for heart problems - she had pain this morning.
Her name is Batya Rochel bat Chana.
2. On a different note - last week, I gave my father-in-law a hand-knitted scarf. He loved it - put it on and didn't take it off. Last night, I spoke to my mother-in-law. He still loves the scarf. He sees it, thinks it's nice and wonders where it came from. She tells him I made it. He gets very happy. And it happens again. He has no short-term memory at all anymore. (He calls his new granddaughter "Sybil." Her name is Wynn, and we don't know who Sybil is.)
ETa: my brother called. He spoke to my mother. They're just ruling things out and she should be going home soon. Baruch HaShem.
