I experienced my first day with my mom when she didn't take her seroquel. She simply forgot to put the pill in her pill box and we weren't at home so she couldn't take it. She didn't sleep, she didn't eat, and she was agitated all day. Big difference. I know in earlier blogs I was all worried and concerned that she shouldn't be on this medication, but I could tell today it is helping her. I'm just wondering how she is going to be able to afford it. It's the most expensive medication she takes I think.
In other news, the Jamaica scam artists are still preying on my mother. They are relentless. I managed to grab the phone from my mom at one point and told them in not so many choice words that they were not going to get another penny out of her, and the bastards called her back. These people are horrible. The only satisfaction is that I know they'll be getting some bad karma for treating people this way. What is even more irritating is that about a year ago, I had out of country calls blocked on her cell phone. I'm not sure how they are not blocked now, but they aren't.
That's about it now. We had my son's birthday party tonight and she had a good time helping me with setting up everything. She fell asleep on the couch at about 8:00 pm though, I'm sure because she was so wired all last night and today from not taking her medicine. I bet tomorrow she'll be fine :)
The image I picked tonight is called "The Road Less Traveled" Traveling is what we've been doing the past 2 weeks and we are going to Vermont this weekend so it was fitting for what's going on in our lives right now. The background was taken on Hwy 5 in California, the figure is a photomanipulation of a vintage photo. Copyright 2008 all rights reserved.
