On Dec 11th we took Mom for a PET scan and MRI, she came out so sick.  Disoriented, and couldn't even hold her head up.  Not sure if she was dehydrated and the dye from scans threw her off or what but it was not good, 
Her blood pressure was low and we went to CCI for 3 straight days for fluids and rechecks and she wasn't getting better they admitted her and she had begun to hallucinate.   After a week in the hospital and lots of follow up appointments, she had infection in her throat and stomach from the auto immune drugs for the cancer. 
She went home finally but was so very weak.
 One of the medicines she is taking has to be taken every 6 hours so we are setting clocks for even in the night.  Terri stayed a few nights and I've stayed some.  I've been sleeping in the floor in the middle bedroom so I can hear her and so Daddy can sleep.  I worry about him spreading himself so thin.
