Hi ho, hi ho, to ER we go

Just as I was heading off to bed, Herd mom having difficult time getting comfortable. Just last Monday I brought her home from the hospital diagnosis, pneumonia and fractured vertebrae. This after being home 6 weeks after quadruple bypass. This after being home 6 months after surgery to repair fractured femur that kept her in rehabilitative nursing home. Eight months prior to that 3 back surgerys within 2 months. She has been through so much over the last Two years that it has taken a tole on her physically as it would any one. That makes Dad very uneasy since she is his primary caregiver as my husband and I are to both if them. Dad had a stroke a few years back and is in dialysis 3 days per week. Thank God that between My 2 brothers and James, we have managed caring for them through these later years. We are grateful to still have them with us as we are a very close family. Thank you again lord.
