Well, it was a nice 22 hours at home, but here we are, back at LDS, now in room 601. Mom had a decent night but declined very quickly this afternoon. From ok to not being able to stay awake, eat anything or drink anything, and started a little drainage from her incision site along with some redness. Her temp also went up to 100.5 and she started throwing up. I put in a few phone calls to her doctor, the hospital and my friend, the doctor, to figure out what we should do. Eventually, I got a call back that said to bring her back to LDS so her doc can see her.
She was a trooper for the drive and is here in the room, resting, while they poke and prod and figure out what's going on. Sounds as if they are going to remove some staples to figure out what is going on at the site of irritation.
Please pray for mom as she goes over this first speed bump to her recovery. Obviously, any assistance requested for this week is on hold as of now.
Thank you!
Meg
Rob and I are praying for peace and comfort for Lolly and for the doctors to quickly determine the source of the problem and the treatment.
