Not much news to report today. Mom's numbers aren't going up as quickly as we had hoped for. That means she's probably going to be stuck in the hospital a little longer than originally anticipated and possibly through Thanksgiving. Hopefully she will be able to get home for the weekend, though. Her blood pressure has been a little wacky today as well so hopefully that regulates and works itself out.
On the plus side, Mom's appetite is getting right back on track! She ate most of her lunch and dinner and some of the "crap" is even tasting good to her. The more nutrition she gets the better so I'm hoping she goes on another shrimp binge soon. Maybe it'll be turkey this time.
Mom's sad that she can't sleep in the hotel room, but I have a sneaking suspicion that if she were in the hotel, she'd want to be in the hospital. That sneaking suspicion comes in the form of a 100 ft crane that is parked right outside our hotel window and spends the majority of the day ramming giant steel beams into the ground... beginning at 7am. I'm sure she'll sleep better once dad gets here. They brought in one of those fort beds today so he can stay right in the room with her - she's looking forward to that.
That's it for now. Take Care.
Amy
