This, my friends, is my mom's former BFF, her alien, Marcel Medi-port. Regrettably, their friendship has suffered irreparable damage, it is beyond repair. Its sad to see and they really do miss each other...but they will always have Tri-City.


Please join me for a moment of silence in misty eyed fond remembrance for this little bugger.

Okay, that was enough for that...now on to the search for my mom's NEW BFF. We aren't sure exactly when our lives will be graced with it's presence because the staph infection is still in the building...it has yet to vacate. However, once it does, here comes the new port! My mom is really looking forward to that...seriously...she currently has a peripheral IV and it is driving her bananas.
Speaking of bananas...wow are we ever going bananas in the hospital! We are like freakin pigeons in the hen house and we are about to fly the coop!and the WORST part of it is that we have absolutely NO CLUE when she gets to go home! Dr. Paroly said today that she has to stay until the infection has cleared up...he added, "Get comfortable."

Erg. Splat. and egads.

My mom was so bored today that she just kept falling asleep and I got so bored that I made my own mini photo shoot in the loo with a kids Mickey Mouse mask and my mom's new hat. Here is the proof....





BOREDUM...but lets talk about how cute that hat is! One of the nurses, Cindy, brought in a bag of hats for my mom to choose from and this is the one she got. When I walked in this morning, I had to do a double take because I thought she had grown hair overnight! In person, or just on her, it actually almost looks like hair. Wait here she is being "Fronche' or French to you and me...



Who knows what will become of us tomorrow. Please pray for our souls...we will most certainly need it.

I feel so bad complaining...at least I get to go home at night.

Tomorrow, in an effort to cure the boredom and prevent the white coats from admitting us to the loony bin, I am bringing some bored games...shooot maybe we should put on a talent show for the nurses and patients...now there's an idea!that will surely keep us out of the loony bin! hahahaha!

Alright friends....see ya on the flip side!

Thanks for the pictures. She looks great! and I found something really cool while browsing the internet so expect a little added gift to appear on the doorstep in the next few days for her when she return's home. If she stays too much longer take it to her..she will love it...
Again really thank you for posting the pictures..its so good to see her face...until I can come home again..it makes me smile.

XOXO

I'm totally lovin' the hat. You two are nerds! But the mast is just out of control, you look like a kiddos doc. hehe I'm sorry you two are so bored, I wish I could be bored with you, butttt I have to work. I think a good tri city dance off would be awesome. I will provide the music, oh and if she's in there for a while, I can provide movies too! YAY! Anyhoo, I hope you are enjoying your time in the hospitalllll. I love you goobers, see you soon!
