Well Mom will not be discharged today. She started running a fever yesterday and they started her on some antibiotics, so we will see what today brings. There is still a chance she will get out sometime tomorrow, but we will have to see how today goes.
I stayed with her in the hospital for the second time last night. I am pretty sure she only has rough nights when I stay with her. She's doing some breathing treatments and the medicine made her sick to her stomach at about 2:30 am. This morning she took a little bit too big of a bite of toast and choked herself. Trying to cough when they've just taken your insides out is not a good thing. But other than that she is dong ok.
We are going to see if they will let me push her around the hospital in a wheelchair just so she can get a different view than these 4 walls and walking around the Nurses station up here. She has to do 5 walks today as well, so we will see how that all goes.
I am sure there is more to updated, but I can't quite remember, my brain is working on 2 and a half hours of sleep.
Keep up the prayers for moms recovery!!

Sure hope the infection will take a hike pretty quick. I can't even begin to imagine how it must feel to cough up toast when you are hurting as much as your mom it. Perhaps soak her toast in milk before you let her eat it :-)
