Mom is doing much better today. Thank you all so much for your prayers and support and for reminding me to take care of myself. They were able to get an IV in last night so they didn't have to get the central line in. She is on high doses of steroids and antibiotics and may be able to come home tomorrow. I spent a long time on the phone with her tonight but didn;t actually get to see her. I am exhausted, been up since 2 am and now I am going to bed. Tahnks again for all of your support, I don't know where I would be without my OH and Barix family. Hope you all have a great night, I will in dreamland. - Katie

Katie,

Glad to hear she is doing better and even better that she didn't have to have a central line. Kudos to that nurse or doctor who "got her" as we say.

I'll be joining you in dreamland very shortly.

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.

Katie,
That was good news about the IV. Thanks for keeping us updated.
Will keep praying - take care of yourself. Hopefully you will get to
enjoy your new job soon.

Glad to hear she is getting what she needs, hope you slept well knowing that she is getting better!

Prayers and positive thoughts continue for your Mom and family!

Hugs, Laureen
