Mom is doing pretty good today. She just got her new pic line in the right side. They started her on medication to thin her blood and fight the blood clot. Dr. Irvin is back in town and he thought things were looking up. Her protein levels which I understand can also measure the inflammation. They were at 11.75 and now at 6 and the doctor would like them at 1 so we are moving in the right way.
Looks like at some point mom will go next to Skilled Nursing unit of the Moberly Hospital then to rehab to gain strength and give her medication. The medication is through the pic line only.
Merry Christmas

Shanna,
Thanks for the updates, that you work so hard on. It is important to all of your Mom's friends and classmates. We are praying everyday, and even though it seems things are piling up, it's good that they are taking care of her while she's there instead of constantly bringing her back. hang in there with her and the family! Steve and Ginny White.
