@juliedyan I'm glad your mom came through surgery well. Bless you for taking the first long shift to take care of her during the most difficult part of the recovery. I know you'll do your best. You may want to keep a journal so you'll be able to look back and measure her progress. Those 15 minute naps will be beneficial too. I'm sure your mom will appreciate your help even though she may not be able to tell you that until she feels better.
