Life has thrown a few curve balls this week.
Thursday, my Mother had what should have been a minor surgery.
Friday I was unfortunately in a store as it was robbed - that shook me up a bit for the rest of the day.
This morning, Sunday, my Mother was up and fine early this morning to have breakfast but after her morning dose of medications, she never woke up. Currently is unresponsive - eyes are open but not responsive. Brain scans and blood work being done now.
Sitting next to the phone with nervous energy... (I'm 1000 miles away) - and I guess needing to keep my fingers busy so I'm typing here... and obviously, food and recipes are the least of my thoughts.
Updated: Possibly mini stroke. More tests. She is talking now - and responsive so there is that.
Updated: We still believe it was a reaction to the pain medication but they are running brain scans, MR's, and test after test.
Updated: My Mother is doing well and was released from the hospital. The admitted that due to "miscommunication" among staff, she was overly sedated with pain medications. She has no memory of the situation other than saying "Well, that was an easy and peaceful way to die" as she simply went to sleep - but her eyes never closed. She is home now.
