Feeling refreshed and clean!

Katy here.

Grandma was able to take a shower today with the help of a hospice nurse.  She is feeling refreshed and clean.  However, it was exhausting!  She kept trying to help the nurse -- go figure, years of practice will do that to you.

Allison and Jodi, granddaughters, called and talked to Grandma.  She absolutely loved talking to both of them and it just brightened her right up -- just peachy were her exact words.

She is looking forward to Jeanette, Doug, Carrie, and Olivia arriving tonight.  George Clark and a few other of Grandma's friends are going to stop by and see her this afternoon.

Grandma is on oxygen regularly now.  The tube was getting occasional drips of water in it, but the hospice medtech came today and fixed it. We are good to go.

As part of the hospice service, a chaplain comes.  Jennifer, the chaplain, came and talked with Grandma.  Grandma shared her bucket list items she has accomplished, and Jennifer was quite impressed! She also asked Grandma who she is looking forward to seeing and she said her husband, her mother and father.  The chaplain has also offered her services to anyone in the family.
