My sweet Momma...As lots of you probably know, my mom has been in the hospital for over a week. I just wanted to update you. She is finally out of ICU. She can finally breathe on her own. She has an infection in her back. She went to about 15 doctors over the past 3 months complaining of back pain. They sent her home with muscle relaxers and pain killers - saying it was just normal back pain. One doctor even sent her to a therapist, saying the pain was all in her head.... JERKS!!!!!
Anyway... the infection, since none of the doctors took the time to find it, got so bad that she has a hole in her back. No wonder she was in so much pain!!! That built up bacteria which gave her an infection in her bowels, and continued to grow until the bacteria was so thick she stopped breathing and went to the hospital. Luckily, she has a great hospital doctor who is really thorough.
It's so hard to be away from her! Jon and I are planning to go see her the first of October -- or maybe Thanksgiving, depending on what happens. She might have to have back surgery -- again -- and maybe something done with her knee. Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers.
