Looking Up

Mom is doing well. Her blood work came back today and although her magnesium is low, her hemoglobin is up to 10.5! Still below normal, but nearly three whole points higher than last month.

Maybe all that turkey and pumpkin pie paid off!

Last weekend was good. Mom slept for several hours after breakfast on Sunday, but from Thanksgiving until then she was awake most of the time. We watched Milo & Otis a total of eight times. Yes, eight. It's the one movie that holds her interest without disturbing her with tragedy or violence. Well, there is that scene where the field mouse gets caught by the screech owl...

Poor Corey and Haley started singing, "Gonna take a walk outside today..."

Speaking of adventures, late Saturday night Corey, Jaime and Evan helped their friend Eric with a film shoot in downtown Petoskey. It was cold and dark and they met several interested inebriates. Before they left for the shoot, Corey and Evan showed Grandma their costume attire, which she dutifully inspected.
