Oh Boy and quotes from Laura

Laura's Hospice Nurse, Dana, taking vitals. Mia and Louis are keeping a close eye on them both.

Sharron and Linda (and maybe others) from Camp Norwich days had a cake made for Laura! It is chocolate and amazing!

Laura's still eating cake! It has been since mid July that Laura has had at least one if not three pieces of layer cake every single day! thats quite an accomplishment. I will look at a calendar and figure out when the streak really started.
Today Laura has been saying,"Oh Boy" a lot. She is napping now yet Hospice nurse is on her way. The nice Hospice nurse, Dana, will talk with me, go over meds and such and then go upstairs and get vitals on Laura and then leave.

Laura said she feels best when lying down but she doesn't want to be alone.  I think we will get another bed to have down stairs in the living room where we had a room for a bit.  That way she can nap down here too.  Laura wants to go out so we are going to try to see the movie Blinded by the Light at 3 today.  Laura had gravlax and garden peas, beans and cheese for lunch.

I started keeping Laura quotes on my phone in mid-May when her brain started to go a bit wacky. Here are some of her quotes:

It’s kinda strange how you are into and out of the way of being

Stop telling me what to do and asking me questions

I’ve done this all before but it’s really hard. I don’t know what to make of it all

I know that you can’t have the best time with every person for every single minute but I wish it could
Be truth

I’m tired but I’m not really tired

Jon you sing or whistle at times And it’s so bad.  You should stop

I’m frustrated to not be able to turn myself into an animal.  I'm just not very good at it. 
Rachel asked does that bother you a lot or a little? Laura. Just a little

The reason that I feel like the world is just spinning is that the world is spinning.

Oh boy. Wow I can’t stop saying oh boy

I need more nutritional beans and a big amount of layer cake
