Leone had a heart attack yesterday; is in St Mike's. Met with Mick with the hospital SW this morning to talk about managing her care. Mick was so sure she was gone yesterday, but when we met with her this morning, she looked very good and was eating and resting. They will do a PT assessment to see if she can be sufficiently mobile to be at home with some come-in supports, but Mick is not feeling that he can manage by himself if she needs a lot of physical help. They will investigate whether there are openings at Whispering Pines, the Health Care Center, or Dimensions (the former Oakridge). They will also bring in Hospice which is paid for by her insurance. None of the residential options are paid for room and board, not even St Mike's which is not in her provider network. Told him I will be leaving tomorrow for the North Shore til next week Saturday, but Joan is returning from Italy on Tuesday. Food: 9:55 am Raspberry Antwerp square, 101 g blackberries, coffee
