Day 2

I had Melchor take me to Walmart and the pharmacy to pick up a few things today. The Walmart here is SWEET! It has a parking deck and escalators you can take the carts on. Monterrey even has a Sam's Club. After picking up everything Melchor asked me if I had 7 minutes to go to the top of a hill to see a beautiful view of the city. I looked at the time skeptically. "Five minutes!" He said, veering off path and up the hill. I was worried that Dr Cantu would leave and no one would be with Mom.

The city was beautiful! Melchor pulled out his binoculars and pointed out some of the major landmarks. The futbol stadium, a mansion on top of one of the mountains, Ave hospital (where mom was). "Hola Mama!" I said looking at the hospital through the binoculars and waving...Melchor thought that was pretty funny.

I got back just as Dr Cantu was leaving. He said she did great. When she woke up all she wanted to know was what time it was. She must have asked me 30 times in an hour and a half period (at least it felt that way). I told her that the next time I went to Walmart I was picking up a book on patience (patience, not patients) and a giant ass digital clock!!
