A Good Night
We had a good night last night. After Mom recovered from the hot, sticky ordeal of waiting in the un-air conditioned surgery procedure prep area -- she was able to relax, sit on the potty and give herself a sponge bath. Major accomplishments! It took us a while to get settled in -- there were breathing treatments, medicines, vitals ... its a wonder anyone can get rest in a hospital. But we finally got some sleep ... and the best part was that they did not get her for dialysis at 5am. We actually slept until 8:30am ... I woke Mom up not someone pushing her out the door. They think she will get the new catheter by 1pm today then we will be able to get dialysis this afternoon ... and we are supposed to get the last radiation appointment. It's looking to be a big day!
