wendy,

imogene is so right about the post anesth issues. my dad turned into a dr

jekyll mr hyde attitude,, the sweet kind mr hyde to everyone but me, to me he

was hateful, even evil when i was there, and begging for the nurses to get me if

i wasnt there, i was the brunt of all his frustration and anger, and it hurt,

it hurt bad, he called me whore, slut, etc, he got sexually in appropriate in

his actions/comments to me, i cried alot and it was soooo hard to remember that

this was his lbd personality not my daddy. i was reminded by the nurses that i

didnt have to stay there and listen to this they wree there to help take care of

him to give me a much needed break. and that when we are at our most scared, and

frightened that is when we take it out on the ones we love the most becuase we

belive that they are going ot love us no matter what. it was so hard to think

that way and then she said look his mind isnt right, and this is his way of

saying sharon i am scared, i know you are doing everyting you can to help but i

am still scared. please help me, then she hugged me while i cried my eyes out.

she wasnt even dads nurse but she could hear daddy yelling at me down the hall.

her generosity helped and her words of his love was so trusting that he knew he

could be his worst and i would still love him, i tried to remember that

everytime he got in his dr jekyll moods but i must admit it didnt alwyas work

but it did help a litlle bit. hugs, sharon m

some ill effects from anesthesia, which can show up in different ways.

I am glad the surgeries are over, but the next couple of weeks, or even

more, are going to be rough. I sure am glad you are spending time with her.

Love

gives strength, and she sure needs it.

Love a bunch to you dear Lady,

Imogene

I am catching up on posts after being gone for days at the hospital with

Mom.

I am sorry to hear you've had some problems. Hope all is going well now. And

thank you for your heartfelt kindness and prayers for my mom.

We had to come home for a few days to catch up on stuff. The nurse reported

to me last night that Mom is being a non cooperator about getting up and

moving around which is the main goal now. Tomorrow when we return to the

city I

will give her a pep talk.

Thanks

& Ginny
