Each time in the hospital is more baffling than before. She has been in St. Vincent's Hospital late last week and over the weekend. The gall stones are now pollups. Her blood sugar is irradict due to a steroid medicine. Her blood pressure was sky high, so new medicine. The kidney problems, they think are caused by the amyloids. The kidneys are not putting out any fluids. They are going to do a biopsy on the kidneys and under her tongue. Her eyes are getting dark around them and the tongue is becoming enlarged.

Mom is feeling more overwhelmed...please lift her up in prayer today.

Wow. It's been a while since I've updated...sorry friends.

We have received a good report (finally) from the doctor that did all the biopsies. There are no amyloids in her bone marrow. Apparently, they are just in her lungs for now. Also, they are secondary, not primary as we were first told. I'm not exactly sure what that means, but it is a good thing. Her kidneys are in failure, though. She still has her gallbladder, which is causing a good bit of discomfort, but will have to do the operation for that as an out-patient.

It seems to me that she is much more clear minded at Moms that she was on her own, thanks to Mom giving her doses as prescribed and sticking to the schedule.
