New Address

Dennis fell last night and as hard as he tried, we needed the ambulance.  The St. James hospital was his first destination.  The ambulance crew was fantastic.  There were as many as eight fellows in our home to see if enough help was on hand.  Three gals were going and checking his vitals. A police officer was on board also.

I have been up since 2:30 and will crash as soon as it is dark outside.  I went out to the the livestock chores at noon.  They had thought they would never be let outside.  When it is dark how many kitties are in . . . bless their hearts.  I am not doing the Grandpa Dennis thing and wait for them to dribble in.

I am feeling the early morning activities.  How can I not reach out an arm when someone has their arm out and asking “please?”

The nurse from St. James hospital called a few minutes ago to let me know Dennis is in the Mankato Hospital with a fractured left hip.  His new address is room 5807.

Dennis’ daughter “Nurse Sandy” lives in Mankato.  She called and said I was to stay home and she would be at the hospital every day after her nursing job in New Ulm.  The way I feel today,  I didn’t put up any quarrel.

I hear a rocking chair calling to me.

With that I will take my leave.♥
