Anniversary Brunch Visit
Vicki, Lin, Sara and I arrived at NewSeaons for the 12:30 brunch. Mom looked fine and was waiting for us in the lobby.
At first, Dad was quite unhappy because of issues with his 'bag' but we convinced him to come down to brunch.
We all retired to the private dining room for Anniversary cake and coffee after brunch.
While Lin and Sara took Mom for a stroll, Vicki and I had a heart-to-heart with Dad about his surgery option. He expressed his distain for the NewSeasons caretakers and his frustration with Mom. He did not commit to wanting surgery or not. The bottom line is that he needs to grow stronger and pass the stress test before he will be considered for surgery. He expressed doubt that he would make it through the surgery -- I think he sees that as the way "out".
