Well, the news is good for now, I was at the hospital most of today, she is getting better. The current status is stable, she had a stroke, but the bleeding has stopped and she does not need surgery, if she did I would have cancelled the trip. I spoke with a crew of doctors and they upgraded her status, they believe she will just need physical therapy.
Just to help the public out, her sickness started about 8 years ago when she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, they gave her predisone and vioxx which has destroyed her body, she is only 65 and suffering from heart disease, liver disease, lung problems (she needs oxygen) , etc....this was all caused by long effects of predisone. Stay away from predisone!!!!
She now has to be assisted when walking, I have placed her in the best nursing home money can buy around here, $4500.00 a month. Now, she will be hospitalized atleast a month.
I have most of the family visiting this weekend, so she won't be alone. If there is an emergency I will leave Baytown in a minute. Hopefully all will go well and I will be there for the weekend.
