Slight changes

 Good and bad.

A week after the nurse pointed out that Okaasan was no longer on the blood pressure meds...she had a fever and low blood pressure. So back on the meds.

We've visited twice since then. Yesterday Okaasan appeared to open her eyes slightly. Her pupils didn't focus on anything, and it may well have been an involuntary movement. But we took it as a positive, as we sat there with the Bossa Nova music playing softly on the mobile phone.

I cleaned out her mouth drool with tissue paper. We patted her shoulders. 

We came home.
