Today marks one day after the hip surgery and Mom was able to sit up and have breakfast this morning. I'm told she is relatively comfortable but still a bit 'out of it' understandably. I'm actually starting to think this whole thing could just work out with Mom returning to the nursing home in the near future. Amazing!!

All of your support here in this tread helped significantly and I just want to thank everyone who chimed in. Very much appreciated!

Live to love, love to live.
