Mom had a rough night after all her celebrating yesterday.
She was restless, and somehow her cough came back. Her Hospice Nurse Missy gave her a shot to help get some of the wetness off her lungs and hopefully that will help her cough.
We backed off some of her cardio pills which was a big decision for us, but Hospice care is about comfort not about cure; and right now, comfort is a hard medium to reach.
Today after giving her a dose of morphine and a couple of pills she asked Shannon and I if we were trying to kill her... our answer was of course no, but it made us giggle. She takes so much medicine I'm sure it feels like we're trying to O.D. her.
I will get pictures posted from her Birthday here in a few - I need to steal them from my cousin Amanda first.
Todd & Jeff stopped by with a beautiful bouquet of flowers for her birthday... Thanks guys, she loves the smell.
One step at a time!
