My mom had surgery early this morning. Part of her intestine died due to adhesions and the doctor had to remove that section. She will be in the ICU for at least one to two more days so that she can be monitored.
Thanks so much LOUISEVEGASGIRL - I live about 20 minutes from where she lives and the hospital is just a couple of blocks from there. I spent a lot of time with her on Tuesday and Wednesday and was able to squeeze in 40 minutes with her yesterday. I had a doctor's appointment and I bowl on Thursday nights. She was doing really well as of yesterday but one of my sister's told me that she pulled a lot of her plugs out since they did not restrain her once they put her in a regular room out of ICU (they had to put mild restraints on her hands so she would not pull any vital plugs or take the tube running through her nose down to where they did surgery out). She has been heavily medicated and she has not been herself.
Beautiful set for mom hope she is healing that sounds like quite an operation for an older person glad she is doing well.Are you able to go see her/ OR DON'T YOU LIVE NEAR HER? I was very close to my mom also and thank you GOD i was able to get to her the minute she needed me...Prayers for your mom
Thank you all so very much! My mom is doing better now that she has had surgery and is getting better with each new day. It will take a while for a full recovery but I'm just blessed that she is still with us!
