Woke with a sore throat again. Took some medicine. Tonight I am taking my Mom to dinner. Sometimes she acts so child-like, almost like she needs extra attention. She asked me what she was supposed to do when I was in the city for 4 days the end of next week. She has a Dr’ s appointment on Monday and asked me if I was going to take her. The way she asked was kind of sad. I get it, she has never liked to drive and I think her eyesight is getting worse. It must be hard to have to give up some of your Independence. She has lost some of her confidence. Maybe she is scared. We are going to 2 church holiday bazaars on Saturday and she seems to be very excited. I am here and not going anywhere. I keep conveying this to her.
