Unhappy Here We Go Again...

I had to take my Mom to the ER in Lafayette yesterday morning. She was weak and losing blood again. They decided to admit her. Her GI doctor is planning to do a colonoscopy this morning. Just waiting on my brother to come get me so we can head over. Don't think I'd be able to make it without a 4-wheel drive. We've got about 3 inches so far and due to get over 8.

When I first got to her house...she just cried..so I let her. She needed to get it out. She's been through so much here these past couple years...especially this past one.

They gave her that go-lite stuff to drink to help clean her out. She didn't want to and it was very scary. I'm so anxious to get back over to the hospital.

Please pray that whatever is wrong they find and can fix it.

Janet, you and your mom have been through so much. I hope they will be able to find something out today to help her. I will be praying for you both and you be careful out in the snow today.

Janet, I'm so sorry to hear that you're Mom's headed to the hospital again. I know that this is so hard for you...and especially for her. She's such an independent little woman that I know this is so difficult. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Your poor Mom! What a year she has had, and you too. You are both in my heart, Janet.

Mom had the colonoscopy done this morning. You're going to have to excuse my spelling and some words coming up...lol. She had a couple polyps and they were removed. She also has a lot of what they call 'ticks' ...it's something ticklitus...Gayle will know what I'm trying to say. I left the papers with Mom so I don't exactly know how to spell them. She also has some areas that look kind of like spider veins and then were enlarged so they cauterized them.

She's feeling okay, but not liking to have to stay on a liquid diet the rest of today. Hopefully after tomorrow's visit by the Dr., he'll let her have something better. Only thing is now....they said because of her age...all those things can happen again. Maybe with the polyps taking a bit longer to appear, but the other two things can happen again. May not happen for a year or could happen in a few weeks. That was disappointing news.

Now the wind here has picked up and I can't hardley see to the road which is about 50 feet. Still snowing with high winds. Not sure how I will get to Mom tomorrow.
