Mom is back in the hospital here in KY. I flew here on the 12th I took her to her doc appt on the 13th and he admitted her to the hospital that day. She is extremely dehydrated and looked awful. Sunken eyes and so weak. She had not had anything to eat or drink for 24 hours. Not because it wasn't offered or available but because she just didn't want anything. I had been up since 5:30am yesterday morning till around 10p last night. I was driving back to the hotel from the hospital (2 hr trip) and I almost went to sleep at the wheel. I usually can do that with no problems but this time I was just so exhausted. I still am.

Keep her in your prayers. I know she will most likely go home tomorrow. She was just being admitted for fluids and for observation. She was throwing up alot and couldn't keep anything down. She had a bowel resection two weeks ago yesterday. So they did some xrays to see if anything is wrong there. I am assuming all is fine since I did not get a phone call last night.

I just talked with her and she is doing much better but still unable to keep anything on her stomach. They are giving her Plasma today to help build her up faster. I am VERY concerned that her bladder is not emptying like it should. She has gotten several bags of fluid and hasn't emptied her bladder enough. We know her bladder was bruised from the bowel resection and that could possible be the culprit but still. SIGH!!

Did I mention I am exhausted?

Penny,

I'm glad to hear your mother is doing better. Please take care of yourself. Let me know if there is anything I can do, I'm not that far away

Tricia I do still have your number and email so I will be contacting you soon so we can meet up somewhere. I picked the restaurant last time so you pick this time. I will be in Nashville tomorrow and Sunday most of the day. There is a bead show in Smyrna I wanna go to. So you can call my cell or email me. I will pm my cell to you.

STEP THE F AWAY FROM THE BEADS AND RESTAURANTS! Tricia, don't let her near the bead show, and you two will be hitting the walking trails, malls and museums together, not the restaurants. Penni, don't make me pull your hair!

But I'm glad Mommy is home

You can't touch me!! I am too far away!! NEENER NEENER!!!! So there!

Glad Mom is home and doing better she is lucky to have you!!!!!!
