BRRRRRRrrrrrrrr


Minus 34 is what our Home Health Nurse Sharon woke up to this morning. She lives in Willow. Whew...makes my Minus 15 seem like nothing.


Mom's BP is low today, she is still nauseated and not eating but a few bites of toast. She is only taking a few of her meds. Sharon was going to ask the doc for an anti nausea medicine as she won't try the ginger capsules. She has slept a lot this weekend. I gave her the last dose of antibiotic this morning and I hope that is the cause of the nausea and should be out of her system in 24 to 48 hours. We are praying that the antibiotic did its job and the UTI is gone. We are concerned about renal failure.

The Home Health nurse reminded me that dehydration can elevate your lab results as well as cause nausea, so it might not be renal. We can hope.


Praying God's will be done! Healing or Heaven...it is a win win situation for mom!
