Mom update
The official read on the CT from the surgeon: the fluid is outside of her lungs causing shortness of breath.
Surgery at noon today to insert drainage tubes and insert tubes to administer pain medication directly to her rib fractures.
This should allow her to take deep breaths, prevent the onset of pneumonia and relieve her pain.
And once again I'm desperately trying to find someone to cover my shift at work.
