Hey! Well she's still on oxygen and runs short of breath easily...so that's a bit annoying for her. But when she went in to get the fluid out of her lungs the doctor said there wasn't enough in there (He originally thought her lung was full) but they did an u/s and said there is something on there, but it's not fluid. She has good and bad days. Yesterday she said she was feeling pretty good. Smile
So now they have to figure out what's going on with her lungs Rolling Eyes
It's a never ending story for her, this was her 7th time being admitted to the hospital since .september 2006. The bill that she just got for her last hospital stay (15 days) was nearly $87,000 Shocked Thank .god for insurace, right?
Thanks for asking .laura!!

I'm sorry to hear that. I can't imagine having a family member in and out of the hospital so much. It sounds so hard. Sad .i hope she gets some answers soon!

Thanks, .laura.
Yeah, and the bill isn't even complete. That doesn't include any of the visits from her doctor or the physical therapists yet.

My parents are dying to watch .adriana again, but we all know my mom can't. But I got a call from my boss this morning asking me to fill in for someone from 5-9 for an .alzheimer patient. This guys house is the town after my parents, so I called and asked my dad if he wanted to watch .adriana. Plus my nephew will be there (he's almost 12) so he can chase her down for them. My mom will be thrilled. She misses .adriana like crazy, and it's killing her she can't watch her anymore.

.i am sorry to here that bout your .mom. .my .granny is currently going through the same thing. .she lung cancer, which just came back after over 10 years of remission and the time frame they gave her is up as of a month ago. .she is getting worse by the day and my mom is now living with her full time, and not working, in order to care for her.

.i hope everything goes ok and you find out what is wrong with her lungs.
