Update:
Dr. Called. Labs are pretty normal. Ct of head shows only age related changes. They gave her fluid through IV. They are going to give her some Remeron, a med for depression. Bacteria in urine was what they call ‘colonized’ which means it is there but does not really make for a uti, but they gave her some Rocephin, which they give for that just in case. Her dog Duncan misses her terribly. He’s a black Labrador and deeply attached to her. She will likely come home tomorrow, urine cultures will be back following day but they can prescribe and send something to pharmacy if needed.
I miss her so much. No one has been my friend like my mother, she’s a great mom and I hope she comes back and eats but the doctor says it’s looking more and more like dementia and failure to thrive, which is what happens to some with dementia at the end as many of you sadly have found out losing your loved ones.
Gosh I so appreciate you all sending prayers and thoughts, good wishes for her and ideas. I will act on them and I do hope she comes around.
Thanks
Thanks for posting about your mom. At a later date, please provide an update. I think you have made many friends here!
Sounds like your Mom is in good hands. I’ll keep praying for you both.
Are you able to gather some of her belongings and put them in her room for her? Familiarity can be such a comfort.
Prayers continuing....for your dear mom, and for you.
