Update

I thought I had posted an update on Mom, but I sure can't find it. Drs, nurses and us....we're all surprised Mom made it through Wednesday night let alone until today. Her BP has been so low for so long, everyone is a little dumbfounded. Today her BP is 50/18. She still has fluid overload that her right arm is leaking through the pores. They give her 1cc of morphine (can be 2 cc), to keep her comfortable. Every part of her body hurts and when moved or touched, she cries out in pain.

I wish God would stop her suffering and take her home although it all breaks my heart and the fear of being without my Mother scares me so much. Everything has been stopped except for comfort measures.

We have chosen to stay here at the hospital where she is most comfortable and the nurses she's had take care of her for the last six months come and see her. She has mostly been on floors 2 and 4 so there has been a steady stream of nurses and housekeeping staff come to check on her.

Seeing her suffer is so hard and at times unbearable. Please continue to keep her in your prayers.
