Also the short red jacket below it--both are really nice
I was kind of sad to see that jacket when I was searching for other instances of the coat, because it wasn't on sale at the same time--I have no idea where to find it. But I want it massively.
Completely coincidentally (pinkie swear) Lana was wearing a red trench on Archer this week. And she is the animated epitome of banging, so that's definite powerful endorsement.
some of the reading I've been doing indicates that sudden degradation might actually be because of a UTI or something like that
Well, huh. These are things I wouldn't necessarily think of. I hope you make discoveries and it's something you can get traction on improving for her, and subsequently for your father (can he be talked out of trying to exert so much control?

That was definitely my experience, Consuela.

ita - the ball point pen drawings you've been linking to have been just amazing. I had NO IDEA.
My onerous task is ongoing. I've thrown out lots of things. And friends came by and helped me move a carload of stuff (mostly yarn and books.) And I'm planning on taking a half day tomorrow to get more stuff done.
I know another family whose mother had a rapid physical decline that turned out to be a UTI -- now she's walking fine again.
