Mama had lots of visitors today. Of course, the only ones I saw were the nurse & the preacher. Last night when I came in she asked what I had been doing. I said chilling. She asked me if that's what Daddy was doing. I paused a moment & said "Probably."

When I brought her lunch today, she asked me if Daddy was eating, too. "I don't know." After lunch she laid there with her hands up in the air like she was doing something. When I asked what, she said she was cleaning the kitchen.

When the nurse was here this morning, I was still upstairs; but Eeyore (yes she's still here) said that her oxygen was 88 so she suggested she wear her mask. As a result, she stayed in bed today; which, given the amount of visitors she had, was probably the best thing for her.

Earlier, I heard her yell at someone "Because I've lost my mind." I'm sorry — I didn't go in there & ask. I do need to get the kitchen cleaned up after dinner & the coffee pot made; then check on her again.

Oh yeah, I've heard from Medicare on the appeal for the ambulance ride. It was denied again; they don't pay for those kind of things. I have the right to appeal it again to an independent contractor, which I plan to do. I'll be restating the original reason I think the claim should be paid, along with the statements for the two previous trips they did pay for. I also plan to call the hospital & speak with them about the nurse's behavior that night & how all this stemmed from her personal opinion, not the doctor's diagnosis.

But that's a story for another time. I'm really tired today. Mama kept me up last night partying, so I'm turning in early.
