Could not figure out how to update old title with update so started a new one.
It appears the antibotics are killing the infection. She is still weak and not really inproveing but not really declining either.
Been one heck of a bad Rollercoaster ride the last week. I'll give a short version of the events.
Entered hospital week ago Thursday with dehydration and every thing in her blood off kilter.
Got her hydrated and some numbers back in specks. Talking discharge in 3 4 days to go home
Next day she is incoherent and un responsive. Told has septis infection and antibotics not helping. Looking at 1 to 2 weeks max
Next day go in she is 200% better. Antibotics are killing infection. Still weak but the finally got nausa and vomiting some what under control so she can keep fluids and some nourishment down.
Next day they want to move her to a hospic facility and she refuses. She is also retaining fluid in her abdomen and haveing trouble breathing. She finally gives approval to remove fluid after 2 previous denials.
Next day she is looking better and talking a lot better. Still looseing stringhts and getting weaker. By this time she is in a condition I can not care for her at home with out 24/7 assistance and that is not available on her state sponsored insurance.
Somewhere in the early part of this I had a hospital bed lined up to pick up for home and tore the liveing room apart to make room for it then get the 1 to 2 week diagnose and have to call and cancel bed then find out Next day may need the bed then next day probably won't need bed now today I ask Dr if she will ever come home and get a maby. Reason being if she workes with her physical tharipes and gets strong enough I can care fore her she may come home. If she does not she won't and if any complications come up depending on them could affect outcome too.
Now the punch in the gut. After all this I am told that if the infection and other complications are taken care of and all that is left is the cancer to fight we are still looking at just 6 months give or take a couple.
That is the high lights. To say the last 14 days have been complicated and ruff is an understatement.
I am trying to eat at least 2 meals a day and get some sleep because I know I am no help or support to her if I an sick but some days it just doesn't work out that way. All considered I am doing well
As a side note,we have been together for 45 years and counting.
I want to thank you all for listening and caring. It helps more than you know.
Sencerely
