My brother has been transferred to a long term rehabilitation facility so that he can learn to live with his new body. After spending several days by his side, my mom flew back home yesterday afternoon. Although I know it was hard for her to leave him, I know that she is happy to be home. I know that she does not like being away from home and her dog for long, regardless of the reason.
With my brother out of the medical crisis I feel maybe we can all start to heal. The past few weeks have been emotionally and physically depleting for everybody involved. At this point I find myself wanting to hide in a cave with a good book and no communication with the outside world. Hiding isn't feasible, but it sure does sound wonderful!
I suppose I could have summed up this blog post in three short words: I am tired.
