Colin is off….

…off to see Mommio.

Despite getting up at 5 am and arriving at the airport at 5:45AM it was a no go.  We were not told why the flight was delayed by two hours but at least he would still get to Winnipeg  by 3 PM, later than planned but at least there.

I am going to miss Colin so very much, even if it is only for a few days.

I found this phone after much online research.  It is supposed to enhance hearing by at least 50 decibels.  This would be a miracle for Colin.  He calls Mommio several times per week but for the past few years she does not hear him.  Very sad for Colin. He wants to have a conversation with his Mom. So I thought that this phone might be of help.  It is in his suitcase.

Sadly when he arrived in Winnipeg and got to where Mommio is living, something was not right.  Mommio was not herself.  It was not pleasant but much has been done since he arrived today to rectify the situation.  At this time that is all that I can say. Things are in motion to change the situation. We are hopeful.  It might be minor but prayers  are welcome.

    OH NO…. praying his mom gets better… hopefully that home is not filling her up with lorzapam as that will not be helpful to her at all. Perhaps, she could move to your town! It would be best for both mom and son… I feel that.

    I hope she is ok. It is hard when you don’t live in the same city. We go through the same thing with hubby’s Mom although she couldn’t communicate with us now even if she had a device. We have zero input on her care. We are lucky though, the facility she is in is wonderful even if hubby’s brother is a total loser and has control over her care. He had her change her power of attorney from the two brothers to just himself just before she totally lost it – unbeknownst to us. This from a Lector in the church.:(

    How sad for Colin and how very sad for his Mom, too, if she is not getting the care she needs and deserves. Long distance care of elderly parents is very difficult for everyone.

    So sad, we really hope everything work out and our prayers are definitely with you!

    So sad, hope things are better. So enjoy the fun they continue to have with one another…

  7. Good thing you two are on top of it with Mommia. Imagine those that are left to take care of themselves and don’t have the power to do it. I’m sure Colin will get it all straightened out.

    AM SO SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT COLIN’S MOM. IT’S SO FRUSTRATING WHEN YOU FEEL SHE IS NOT BEING LOOKED AFTER PROPERLY. I’M SORRY SHE AND YOU BOTH ARE GOING THROUGH THIS. YOU’RE ALL IN MY PRAYERS. GOD BLESS.
