Hello everyone. I misplaced the link here.
I'll spare you one update and provide the latest. Thank you again for all your prayers.
My mom is recovering from a kidney infection, we believe we are through that and beginning to move forward in dealing with life like everyone does. My mom does require my full time attention and over the years my health has declined. I have a persistent infection which will likely disrupt my mom's care. I'm my mother's link to the world. I'm taking a second antibiotic for the infection, but I may need an IV for who knows how long, maybe even surgery and yes I'm diabetic with thyroid disease. I'm sure the lists goes on. Even those two have never been formally diagnosed. It will be certain as soon as I get my labs back. But I rarely see doctors for a list of reasons, being a lifelong depressive being one of them. I would hope I could have that at home to guide over mom's care. I'm fearful she will once again be not only mismanaged but also afraid without my presence. The home IV is especially doubtful with my health status but it has happened with uninsured persons previously. Hopefully this pill will work. But I have my doubts. I do care on a lesser degree to what becomes of me, but the idea of of uninstructed, unsupervised strangers attempting to care for my mom's delicate care at this point in her life makes me quite uneasy. We had healthcare services here at the house for awhile but they were a problem with their care about half or more of the time where they seemed to place proving me wrong over and above what was best for mom. Simply put there was a preconceived overriding story that seemingly and deliberately ignored much of mom's prior history despite repeated efforts for me to explain things. When you live 50 plus years you know what storytelling smells like. I got so tired of that and the drama that entailed. Please continue to lift us up. Thank you.
Nic
