Dan and I arrived around 4:10 - both were awake and tv was on. I told Momu that Hunter was sick so their trip would be postponed a few weeks. She was extremely disappointed. But I reminded her that Dad was coming so that made it a bit better.
Momu was in 'lets go home mode' today. She wants Dad to take her kitchen table and easel home. Then when they are able to leave MB she asked me to drive them home. I truly ignored her comments. Momu did acknowledge that Popa was not eating anything. I told the nurse and they are aware.
The phychiatrist (spelling?) came in to speak to Momu - they were gone for about 10 minutes. Then she asked Dan and I to step into the hallway. She told us that Momu really does not want to stay. The doctor is ordering some neuro physh tests because in the 10 minute interview she was only border line dimentia. Then she asked us about some basic history so we explained how she ended up at MB and that helped the doc alot. She knows Dad and I are meeting with Amy (social worker) tomorrow which is why she did Momus quick assessment today. She agreed no way can she care for Popa at home. In fact, based on how the test results come back, Momu MAY be able to leave but w/only 24/7 care. But the better thing that Momu told the doctor was there was no way she would leave w/out Popa. Momu's 'go home' trigger today was really about getting Popa home to be seen by their doctor because of his lack of eating.
Thats all until tomorrow - thankfully the policitcal arena is keeping Momu quite content.
