Jan. 14th, 2021 08:41 amuuuuuuuuuuuugh. Woke up at the asscrack of dawn because Mom's nurse wanted to come by somewhere between 10-12, and Mom wouldn't take her shower last night so we have to do it this morning. Since she's not able to zoom around (hell, she wasn't before the surgery) this means waking up EXTRA early.
Mom took a nap after breakfast (we haven't finished anything else beyond weighing her) and right at the end of the nap I get a text from another nurse who is helping Nurse 1 and she wants to come from 2-3. I want to cry. I was going to nap this afternoon after I finally got to make my hardboiled eggs and had Mom call her insurance about the hospital fuckery (we'll discuss this when I know more) and now instead of the day being done at 1/1:30, we'll just be gearing up for another round. Her OT is coming at noon, btw.
We've seen nurse 1 exactly ONCE and she called yesterday to check on Mom but it's still vexing. I did not sleep well last night, which is extra annoying since the reason I didn't sleep well was because the cat kept running upstairs and waking me up and until last night Mom would call/use the intercom on the phones to let me know she needed to hit the bathroom. So I kept waking up when the cat hit my bed and think, "huh, Mom should be calling annnnnnnny minute now" and then it would never happen. Because Mom thought she'd give me the night off. Without telling me. So I kept waiting until I'd eventually doze off. Which is fine for napping but terrible for sleeping.
I am also miffed because Mom refuses, absolutely refuses, to do any of the things she'd been told to do to alleviate a certain issue. I understood at first but when you're literally complaining about it every 5 minutes, maybe suck it up and do the thing they suggested, if only so you can say "AHA, it didn't work!"?
But my patience might've run out on this issue back on Monday.
