Update #2
Mom is getting out of bed better now. She can stand without toppling. The PT's have her up and walking the hallways now, and though she's still leaning a little to the right, her walking is better. She isn't stooping as much, either. She will probably be on a walker for a while, till it straightens itself out, but I think she's accepting that. Either way, it's gonna come home with her when she checks out.
And she's gonna need a PT to come to the house, more than likely. But that's fine. As long as it helps.
They might let her out tomorrow. We'll see. She's off all the tubes and stuff, and no oxygen, so that's a step in the right direction. She now has a kidney and cardio specialist as well, and might need one other for her, but that's one less less thing to be worried over.
It's probably just as well. I am still tired as hell, and on top of all this my period came in full force today. *Joy.* Cramps and all. Ugh. And even my blood pressure is up. God....can you top that? That is the last thing I need is to start on blood pressure pills at my age. Of course, if I didn't have brothers and a father annoying me on a (almost) daily basis, it would be all right. No wonder I am PMS'ing out of this world.
