We made a trip to see one of Mom’s doctor’s today. The prognosis is good but not great. Mom has a better understanding of how the surgery went, post surgery condition, and what she needs to do to to recover. And, other things may be a factor.
Being the wonderful nanny Newfie that I am, when we returned home I decided that Mom should be on nap/lap lockdown. I tossed my toy onto the bed. Naturally Mom climbed onto the bed to get it. I snuck right up there and plunked myself over her legs. She couldn’t move. Hee Hee.

I did grab my toy and put it on her lap and let Mom know her that she was going to be resting. Period.
And then I calmly rolled to my side. 128 pounds of “dead” goofy Newfie weight.

Mom knew she needed to give in…and she did. She leaned back, closed her eyes and rested – just as I planned!
Nap lockdown by the nanny Newfie!

Woofs and wags,
