More bad news this weekend. I really don’t think I can take anymore.
My mom called me Saturday and she said she had a bad cold, no appetite. I just saw her last weekend and she went out with me and the kids to lunch – she was fine. She looked bad Saturday and I said I would take her to the doc Monday.
Sunday she took at turn for the worse and she went to the ER. Long story short – massive pneumonia in her left lung, she is not getting enough oxygen from the right lung, her blood count is low (the stuff that moves the oxygen around) and her liver functions are low. The ER doc said her pneumonia is a 9 on a 10 scale (10 being the worse) and he said she honestly had only about a 15 to 20% chance of survival given her age (she is 89). She is in the ICU with antibiotics and oxygen.
I feel so lost right now. I called my W to tell her and she seemed interested but that was about all. Not too long ago my W ADORED my mom. Now….
More later. Any prayers for my family would be appreciated. Thanks.
