I'm at Mom's now for a visit and she looks great. Her voice is strong and she is much more alert. She is starting to look like she did about 10 days after we got her home from Texas before she started any procedures. I said Mom you just look like you feel better, she said she really did.
The Hospice nurse was in yesterday and the first thing she did was make an appointment for Mom to get a shot for her rash. Dr. Hough gave her the shot and then took her off one of the medicines the hospital put her on. He said that it was having a reaction with one of her other pills and causing the rash. Mom says she thinks it is already having a positive effect.
Becky is back now and met with a Hospice nurse that stopped by today. Everything is all set up now and a schedule has been made. With the medicine straightened out and the hives on the way out we are expecting Mom to feel much better in the coming days. Keep those prayers coming, it appears they are having an effect.
Aunt Betty and cousin Doug are coming for a visit tomorrow. Aunt Betty is Dad's brothers widow. Mom is looking forward to this visit also, I think all these visits must be helping. She seems to do better after every one. Take care, I'll write again soon. Jim
