We knew she had a touch of pneumonia late in the week, but didn't think it was too bad. However, they called Saturday morning about 11:00 and transported her to the Lewisville hospital. She was having stomach trouble-- couldn't keep anything down or inside her system. Nausea and diarrhea. Not a good combination...
And it hasn't gotten any better. We were there tonight for a few minutes: she was extremely uncomfortable, anxious/depressed (I probably would be, too), and nauseated. She had some soup and cranberry juice for supper, Dad said- it lasted less than 30 minutes.
She's feeling very poorly right now, and the doctors are not giving anyone a lot of info, which makes me think they either don't know exactly what it is or never have seen anyone to really tell them what's going on. I suspect a little of both.
Meanwhile, it seems like every time I post, something changes. So, I'm hoping by posting that she's in the hospital-- she'll turn right around, get better, and get back out before this thing is on for 24 hours.
Maybe I'll give it 48 hours...
Anyway, she's pretty sick right now. Hopefully, they'll give her something to calm her stomach, ease the diarrhea, and get her back on track to go back to the nursing home for therapy. I hate for her to fall behind.
