Day 4 July 15, 2009

Wednesday morning was surgery for Mom to fix her elbow. Surgery went very well as they did an area block and did not have to take her under so far. She now has a plate and screws in her right elbow to hold everything in place.

After surgery and recovery we took her to Preston Place, an assisted living community very near the hospital and doctors and fairly close to my brother Mark's place. We stayed the afternoon and had dinner with her. She was tired but tolerated the day very well. Within the first hour of being at the center, almost every staff member stopped by and introduced themselves to Mom and asked what they could do for her. It sure made us feel as if we had made the correct decision on the place to take her.
