A Weekend for "The Girls"

I took last Saturday off to bring Nana for a mammogram.  The doctor and I are still a little concerned about Nana's weight loss, though it has now stabilized and she seems to be eating well (In fact, she has been asking the staff if she could choose from a menu now.... heehee.) So we thought we would just make sure that we weren't missing anything.
   After bringing Nana to the car, I asked her if she remembered what a mammogram was.  She said no.... I explained that it was a test for breast cancer, and it could be uncomfortable. "Ohhhh.... eww. Well, if it is important for my health, that's ok."
   We arrived at the center, and we were the only patients.  The techs looked a little nervous when they saw Nana arrive via a walker, but she smiled at everyone and made everyone feel at ease.  She entered the mammography area and was readied for the test.  After the first breast was imaged, Nana thanked the mammographer. "Hmm," she said, "I think that is the first time that anyone has thanked me for that." We laughed.  Nana said, "Well, I know that you are doing your best. And this is an important test."  I tried to "read" the mammography films, but of course, I didn't know what I was doing.  But the films looked the same on each side, so I will take that as a positive.
  After the appointment, we went to Lady Grace for a bra fitting-- the ones she was wearing these days looked about 25 years old, and she had mentioned that she needed some new ones.  We went to the back and the salesperson brought her some bras that looked "familiar", as well as some that would be a little more comfortable (ones with less support but no hooks to reach in the back.) She chose the ones that looked more familiar, as expected.
  After making our purchases, we headed back to the car. 
"Where will I be going now?"
I told her that I was taking back to her home.  She looked a bit concerned as she got into the car, but as we pulled into Compass' parking lot, she said, "I know this place-- I love it here!"
  We entered the memory support area, and Nana settled into a chair in the dining area, where the residents were having birthday cake.  I hung up Nana's coat and returned to say goodbye.  She turned to me and said thank you for the day, and told me she loved me.
  "And thank you, Nancy, for finding me such a wonderful, wonderful home." :)
