Well, packing (and unpacking) have been accomplished. We enjoyed the cruise and made some new friends, but unfortunately the Mamá came home with bronchitis. We have so far managed to prevent it from becoming pneumonia by administering her breathing treatments around the clock every four hours. She sees the cardiologist this week and goes back to the PCP on Friday. She coughs almost constantly, but they don't want to suppress the cough, since that is what helps prevent it from becoming pneumonia.
We just spent a long weekend in NY. My sister kindly insisted on taking mom to her house for the weekend so that we could take advantage of Bob's days off. We had a great time, eating dinner on Carolyn's terrace the first night, cycling the northern part of Manhattan and visiting the Cloisters on Saturday, going to Carolyn's choral concert on Saturday night. Sunday was spent as Sundays should be in New York: at the Met and then relaxing in Central Park. We reluctantly came home yesterday, but feeling refreshed and renewed.
