New Goal

“Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” ~ Maya Angelou

Maya Angelou was such a wise woman. So many of her quotes resonate with me.

Harvey is being moved from the ICU to a private room this afternoon. He seems to be doing better, though was not alert. We talked to various doctors and then waited for the nurse from the nursing home to arrive before leaving. We were there about four hours.

I’m trying to concentrate on putting one foot in front of the other, doing the best I know how to do each day, and then doing the same thing the next day.

Stressing about the situation doesn’t help. I’m trying to SEE what is going on as objectively as I am able, base decisions on FACTS – not emotions. I’m not being totally successful, but I’m doing better than I was.

I’m doing everything I can to relax when I can. This helps me stay calm when we’re having to really listen and make decisions based on what they recommend plus what we know about Harvey.

We will see him tomorrow.
