Upstairs

Ma had been sleeping downstairs in a hospital bed since she was released from the hospital last July. She hadn't been going upstairs at all. The downstairs bathroom has no shower, so she's been taking daily sponge baths all this time.

While Kit was here, Ma started going upstairs to sleep in her own bed. She also has taken a shower a couple of times. Pa has to help her, and she uses a shower bench. I suppose I could help her myself, but I don't want to.

A week ago, Pa said he had some chest pains. He went for a blood test today. He's also going for a stress test on Wednesday next week. He doesn't want to move up the date, saying there's no rush since he hasn't had additional pain. Is it really okay to wait?
