I went to visit Nana today, and I now realize that we have officially changed roles. The Nursing Director pulled me aside, with a big grin on her face.
"I was downstairs around dinnertime last nite, and I looked over to see your Mom, and she wasn't wearing any pants. I then realized that she was in her bathing suit, so I sent one of the CNAs down to get her. She told her that she was in her swimsuit because she didn't want to miss swim class, 'because my daughter bawled me out for skipping class yesterday.' " Yes, she is now using one of my favorite teenage expressions...
Looking on the bright side, she did remember our discussion about how important exercising was to keep her Alzheimers at bay.....
