Would Appreciate Prayers for Mom

[Janet]

Thanks everyone. When Mom first arrived at the hospital she was in ICU. Thursday they moved her to the general population not sure what you call it.. She is still on the 2nd floor. I just called her and they are going to move her to the 4th floor because she is better. Not sure when they are going to let her go. Mom doesn't want them to do the heart cath because she doesn't want her kidneys to get worse and do hemo dialysis. So we'll see. As long as she can make the decisions and know the facts...I think it best to leave it up to her what she wants them to do to her. The Drs. explain the procedures and I try to be there to tell her in ways that she'll understand. Man this is hard.

It is really hard Janet! This is what Betsi and I have been dealing with for many many years, and it never gets any easier. If you need to talk, you know where we are!

It sounds very hard! You are not alone though, Janet.

Hugs and love!
