To make a really long story short my mom is has been hospitalized. She is in kidney failure and since here kidneys are failing she has congested heart failure. She is doing better but I’ll be on and off the internet for properly the rest of the week.

My mom is in the hospital again this time it's the IUC at Hillcrest. Her heart rate blood sugar are really high.
I don't know if it was just becasue she felt bad but she was talking like she wasn't coming home. She hates the dialysis and her just might to be able to handle it anymore.
So guys I someone to give me a hand and take over planning the next meeting.

Thanks guys
Mom is in Hillcrest’s ICU her condition has been down graded for critical to serious. The doctors aren’t sure when she had the heart attack or how bad it damaged her heart. When she was bought in Saturday her heart rate was 130-150 and her blood sugar 880. She is in what is called an Acidosis Coma which means she is awake and knows us but is hallucinating. Her fistula (where the dialysis is done) has a blood clot so they’ve put a tube in her jugular this morning for the dialysis.
I’m at work now and will be until 9 then I’m heading back to the hospital. So I’ll be online until then if anyone needs to get into touch with me. Thanks for all your good thoughts guys.

Man, Hope all goes well. Don't hesitate to call. Christy's at work, so David and I could hike over if needed. Except that he's got a little something... hopefully he'll be better soon. Sneezing, red eyes and nose.

Mom is doing better. Yesterday they did a heart cath and put shunts into two of her arteries. One of 45% clogged and the other was 90%. Last night she was sitting up and eating dinner. She is going to be in ICU for a few more days and we have to clue when she will let out of the hospital. But she is doing a lot better.  |
