My mom.....
Contrary to popular belief... My mom has not come out of her coma yet... We can't tell if she is waking up, or doing any better because she is under so much medication and it just knocks her out...
The doctors wanted to start taking her off of her medicine 2 days ago to see if she would wake up or respond any better... but unfoutunetly, we had a major set back yesterday... They had to take her in for an immediate surgery to do a tracheometry (cutting a hole in the throat) so that she could breathe better with the ventilator. :(
It is kind of good now that we can see her face without all of those tubes going in her mouth and nose.. Her stitches on her face are healing up really well.... but now we have to wait even longer for any results because they have to start over on slowly taking her off of the medicine.... :(
The circulation in her legs is coming back slowly... Other than that, nothing else has really changed a great amount. She is still a 10 or so on the coma scale (3 being the lowest and 15 being the highest)...
I just want her to wake up soon..... I can't stand not having her around and not being able to talk to her. I miss my mommy!!!!!!
But I am doing good, if anyone cares. I am holding up pretty well. I just dont see the point in acting all crazy. It wont help anything. So, I am being strong for my mom, and for my family.
I pray a million times a day. That is all I really CAN do for my mom. She is going to do just fine, I know it. The lord has his hand on her. :)
Thank you to everyone for all of your support, you guys rock! I will come back soon for another update... But right now I am leaving for the hospital again.
I love you guys. Talk to you all soon.
