My mother had pancreatic surgery and it is a stressful process.

Though there was not much I could do for her medically, I tried to keep her spirts up. If she craved a milkshake, I got her one. She liked to listen to music. We went for short drives to get out of house. If she fell sleep on sofa while watching a movie, I sat with her.

She was a spiritual person, and her pastor was kind enough to visit.

She actually did not not want many visitors, it would make her more tired.

Like any illness that takes away your energy, you prioritize the important things and not worry about other things.

My thought are with you.

Thank you, Laurie, for putting into words,
“ you prioritize the important things and not worry about other things.”
