Thursday a.m. update...

Well, Mom had a little bit of a better night for Dorothy last night. She's getting weak, not eating too much, but still eating. However, the plural fluid buildup is getting worse, the bulge on her back is warm to the touch. We're waiting to talk to the Dr. about what to do, hopefully he'll call this morning as I'm taking 13 Daisy's (kindergarten brownies) to McDonald's and then to a Karate place....UGH! It sounded like a good idea at the time. Anyways, Anna & Dan (cousin's) and my nephew Brian are coming to visit Mom today and she's getting a bath this afternoon, so she'll be busy, busy, busy! We're also going to talk with the Doctor regarding a different type of painkiller that is a patch that constantly release's the painkillers into her blood stream. We might try and do that in lew of Pergazet (sp?). Mom does not like swallowing pills!!!

That is all I know now. I'll update tomorrow and let you know how everything is going!

So, how did the McDonalds thing go today?????? Was it fun????? Cute pictures of the kids. Tell Dorothy hi from us and give everyone hugs from us too. Hope Mom finds her peace without too much more suffering. We'll keep her(and all of you)in our thoughts and prayers. Judi.
