Convalesence

For the convalescent's room:

• Cheery company as tolerated (Daisy likes to provide this, and she brings her bunny family with her).


• Tidiness. Who wants to lie there looking at mess and disorder they can't do anything about?
• Lots of sunshine.
• Fresh pillowcase every day, fresh sheets as needed.
• Fresh flowers.

    I think I'd LIKE to be sick if I could be in your sickroom! :-)

    And, the sunlight... a most important element which seems to abound in your sickroom! Here's hoping that your mother is regaining strength very quickly.

    The photos are lovely--so calming and peaceful. Who could stay ill with surroundings like that? Your mother is so fortunate to be recuperating in your home with the love and attention you describe.

    I always learn something new and helpful from your blog! It just had not crossed my mind to change pillowcases every day. I usually just change all the linens once a week. This is a good thing, as MS would say.

    You know, I completely missed the part about your mother recovering from back surgery! I didn't mean to sound flippant in my earlier comment!

    But I do LOVE your sickroom! It's heavenly, as are the photos.

    again, for your mother:

    Lamentations 3:21
    Yet this I call to mind
    and therefore I have hope:

    Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed,
    for his compassions never fail.

    They are new every morning;
    great is your faithfulness.

    I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him."

    The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him,
    to the one who seeks him...

    would it be possible to get a shot of that bed? I love old iron beds and I think I have one similar, although I've never seen one like it.

    praying your mother heals quickly

    I'm sorry your mother is in recovery, but it seems that she is in excellent hands with you. I love your serene relaxing room. Thanks for posting. I hope she is well soon.
