update on my mom

I appreciate all the prayers, love and concern regarding mom. Theresa... she got your beautiful card and it touched her heart. She said thank you so much!
I spent time with her yesterday. They ran more tests on her kidneys and heart because that is what hospitals do. So during that time Tara and I had lunch in the cafeteria and a nice visit. I miss just chatting with her. We went upstairs and Libby was there. Mom's lunch came and she was less than thrilled. Tara commented on it being the first time she saw grandma pout. lol! Then dummy me said I would eat a piece of brocolli if mom did.... and she did and I did. That bite doubled in size in my mouth. The taste wasn't bad... it was the texture. Nasty little beads rolling around in my mouth and getting stuck in my teeth. But it was worth watching mom laugh!!! When I was the only one left there... she decided she wanted to try to sleep so I shut off the light and closed the door. Her room mate is awesome. Nice lady with blood clots in her legs they cannot get rid of or control. She has been there almost 3 weeks and has 4 or 5 kids at home ages 4-15. Please keep her in your prayers too.
They really don't know much more about mom. We seem to be guessing alot with my brother, Doug's, help. Between guesses and what the doctors have said is:
heart..... her pulse rate is staying down with the drip, so they are removing it and trying oral meds to see if they can keep it down that way. That would be a good thing. But they put her on coumadin.
kidneys.... That brings up the kidneys... since they put her back on her blood thinner.... we are guessing they aren't going to put her on dialysis since they can't do surgery while her blood is that thin. The doctor told mom that they are hoping her kidneys will be waking up and functioning without the dialysis. We are praying they are right!!!

That is all I know. That is all that is on my mind is my mom right now so I am going to get ready to go in to the hospital. Thanks so much and keep on praying! xoxo
