My mom
My mom has been really ill for over a month. Trips and hours in the ER. And this last week felt even more critical, lots of time in ER ... but I think we finally figured out what the latest culprit making her so sick ... C.dff ... the result of months taking really high doses of antibiotics battling Diverticulitis. I saw my mom deteriorate in one month and that is really scary! But now that we know, I am keeping my fingers crossed that something can be done to relieve her pain.
Oh, so sorry! I love your photos of your Mom and her wonderful recipes. She looks like such a sweetheart. Hoping she feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you Terry! I am just so glad we figured it out. The frustrating part is NOT knowing what you are dealing with. Will pass on your best wishes. xoxo
ReplyDeleteSending my best thoughts for you and your sweet mum's swift recovery and restoration to vitality.
ReplyDeleteGreat luck discovering the underlying cause of this issue.
i wish you much strength & hope your mother will recover swiftly
ReplyDeleteHi Kim, I have a friend that was diagnosed with this a few years back. She was given mega doses of a high powered probiotics and another medication. She finally turned the corner. It IS scary and debilitating. I'm wishing your dear mother a speedy recovery. My best to you both. Jan

ReplyDeleteThank you all! Am sending your best wishes over to mom, she will really appreciate them! We have a Thursday follow up dr appt and can't wait until she gets off the antibiotics and can start the probiotics!
ReplyDeleteHoping for a quick recovery for Mom, and only good news about a reduction of pain.
ReplyDeleteWow. Scary. I think not knowing what you are dealing with is the hardest part. I hope your mom can now move forward and feel better. Add my very best wishes for a swift recovery to the bunch.
