Early Surprise

Woke up this morning to find mom not feeling well.  Drove to Sumter to the ER at Tuomey where she was diagnosed with a slight infection.  Antibiotics prescribed and she was released.  We visited Covenant Place after buying a few things for her apartment at Walgreens.

Had breakfast at noon at Busters after not eating last night.  We have got to be better about taking care of ourselves.  Last night was one of frustration and feelings by me of not accomplishing much.

Visited dad for a good bit tonight.  I asked the nurse what his blood glucose levels were over the day and discovered one reading of 300.  Thought they had him on a sliding scale of insulin therapy but they did not.  A call to dad's doc brought orders for that to start.  Just trying to figure out why he has not come around mentally.  Even though the first injection of insulin had not been given dad was talking and responding.  He often was responding in a funny way with his answers, funny odd, not funny ha ha.  Such as saying "I'm going over to the Shrimper for some baroodies."  I just replied that they had really good baroodies there and he seemed to be happy.  That is better than yesterday when he just slept heavily.  He also said he had to get out of the bed and actually tried to do so.
