I thought it was to confirm that I'd be taking my mother to the doctor's today, and that she'd cover the appointment for tomorrow.

Instead, she was calling from the hospital to tell me my mother got admitted last night.

She's hooked up to a IV full of antibiotics

In my prayers man.

My Mom lives with us so I know what you're going through. We have Life Line that calls directly to my cell in case anything happens.

That doesn't sound good.

Antibiotics? Staph?

I hope she recovers!

She's retaining fluid to the point that it oozes out where ever it can, brush up against the skin an it just falls off.

They have her on a morphine drip to cope.

I'm very sorry to learn of you mom's illness. Every time I
hear/read of this sort of thing I recall the issues my parents had. Best wishes for your family.

Best wishes for mom. My mother just went in last Saturday for a bladder infection. She had bacteria running through her bloodstream. She is feeling better now. Hope the antibiotics do the trick.

I just got off the phone with her.

She seemed more concerned that she was going to miss an event at the elderly center Friday.

Well at least she's in good spirit.

My sister says they're doing EKG's and ultrasounds to figure out the real issue, circulation, and not just the symptom.

She's 80, so she's actually doing pretty good for her age.

She's feeling a lot better, the pain medication is letting her get the rest she's been missing over the last week.
