Mom stuck at hospital, but hopefully OK

Mom is slightly better than yesterday, which is to say apparently all better, but still a bit confused at times.  The confusion mainly seems to be about recent events that she was confused about earlier, and seem to have gotten set in her memory incorrectly.  Things such as when she entered the hospital this time.

Mom really did not want to spend the night in the hospital alone tonight.  She has become nervous about that.
However, she does not have a choice.  It was hard on Dad to be thinking about leaving her alone.
We brought a knitting project and a word search book for Mom from their home, so hopefully having somethings to keep her mind occupied will help her pass the time without dwelling on her being lonely or her nervousness.

Jodi and I looked over the house a bit while picking up the items for Mom.  Only one item stood out as unusual, and that could have happened since Mom was in the hospital.  The freezer door was wedged open, having an extension cord that got stuck between the seal..  So all the food was thawed out, only slightly below room temperature.  I removed the cord, and shut the door, but did not make the time to clean out the freezer yet.  I am not sure how I will make time to empty that out with everything else going on.
