Morning all! Mom had a checkup with her pcp yesterday and he tested her for alzheimers. He did a simple memory test. She did Ok and he doesn't think she has it but my sister and my mom forgot to mention it has run in the family. Four maternal aunts have or had it and were my grandma's sisters. Oh well, hope he's right. He also suggested she may have the onset of Parkinson's because she has a shake in his arms that annoys her. He wants her to talk to her neuro about that. My aunt on my grandfathers side (his sister) has Parkinson's. Please say a small prayer for her that it's not parkinson's and is related to the brain surgery.

We don't have much planned today. Doing some laundry. We have court with my cousin on Thursday so getting ready for that.

Have a good day everyone.

Trish, if he has any questions please feel free to ask anything about the surgery.
