A Diagnosis Update

Mary here...

So it looks like Grandma will continue to be in hospital for about a week. The doctors have identified a few severe infections in her body causing these issues and she is now under the care of a specialist who can treat her appropriately. Unfortunately last week it appears that they did not identify the source of the problem and treated her symptoms and not the thing causing them.

She's sleeping a lot but is up for taking visitors. They're keeping her in the ER for the time being because they'll be able to react faster if anything changes. Once she's on a more stable recovery she'll be moved to a room.

I'll keep you posted if anything changes!

Thank you for the update. That address you gave me; is that the one for her home or the hospital?

OMG! Just got home from Puerto Rico to find you in the hospital.As a retired nurse,
I was getting frustrated when you kept saying how bad your back was and then would continue to say "Ray and I went to the store, went to the bakery and then met a friend for lunch,etc,etc. Kept thinking how about resting that back. I hope when you got home that your were not over doing it , because you are back in the hospital. Nan, listen to your body talk to you when it says ouch, slow down and take care.
I pray you are doing much better. Love, Jean

Diana: That address is for her home :) Grandpa will deliver them to her when they arrive if she's still in the hospital and if she's at home they won't go to the wrong place.
