Mom Update

Nothing much to say. After she went on the ventilator, things just kind of hung out for awhile. She still needs the Levo to keep her blood pressure up (not good); she's still having trouble getting rid of the excess fluid (not good); she's running a low temp (not good) that's easily controlled with Tylenol (good); her kidneys are back to adequate(good) but just barely (not good), and her heart is getting stronger by the hour (very good.)

It looks now like she'll be on the ventilator for a couple of days at least while they try and clear up the fluid in her lungs. The good news is that the longer she goes without a major setback, the stronger she gets, so right now, no change is actually a good thing.
