TRPiJiu's Journal, 06 May 2020

Just like to thank all the previous support for my last entry.

My mother has been out of the ICU for days now, blood pressure is stable and she is no longer septic (blood infection), her white blood cell count numbers are back in the normal range and the cultures for her blood come back negative. Hopefully soon she can get transferred to rehab and start getting strong enough to go home. Problem is how she became septic is still a mystery, so they're still doing tests to try to figure out the source of the infection (likely in her GI tract, but so far haven't found it.) She's kind of miserable though, antibiotics do a number on you and they had her on lots of fluid and now that have her on fairly large doses of diuretics. So she's kinda physically miserable.

Happily I'm much less anxious, so no more stomach tying in knots every evening. So that's something!
