Update

Things with my mom are slowly getting better. She's finally starting to open up and believe that her opinion and wants are important. For the first time she asked for something to eat and drink. It may not seem like much but, it's huge. Buffy is making a huge difference. I'm constantly having to fight mom for Buffy. Not much of a fight as Buffy is my baby but, mom is sneaky and is constantly calling Buffy up onto her bed which, can potentially negate some of her training so I'm having to be stricter than I like.

Kat is going Monday to sign up to work for a Care Giving company called Serao. Once she's signed up and trained, she'll take over my mom's care giving. It's going to solve her job delima and help her feel better because she'll be doing something worthwhile. She is a natural. I have heard Kat and my mom talk and Kat really opens her up. She's been reading Memoirs of a Geisha to my mom and my mom is really getting into it.

They locked up my mom's house yesterday and had the trash people over this morning to trash everything. We got almost all of her stuff out but, thanks to my sister Aimee's
unreliability, the second piano has probably been trashed. Such a waste.
