Dave's mom remains in the same room, on the same floor, in the same state of shifting realities.
They're keeping her on the medical floor because she still has a low grade infection somewhere in her body.
They can't shift her to psych and work out her imbalance until she's cleared by medicine.
So. Two weeks into it, and nothing has really changed. It's been exhausting, with all of the worry, and for Dave, with all of the time spent going to and from the hospital. Fortunately, his workplace and his boss are very flexible.
She's had a few "better" days in the past week, where she was marginally coherent and present in her body, but getting her to focus on the here and now is difficult.
I keep saying she's "off with the fairies."
We'll see how she is today, and we'll try to just go on with our lives until tomorrow.
