Before we left to see mom on Friday the nurse called saying mom had a fever the night before and was coughing a lot. The doctor put her back on the oxygen, steroids and she was going to get a chest x-ray. When I went to see her they were keeping in her in the bed for the day but she was alert and no confusion. They did the x-ray while I was there.
Saturday they called and said fluid had infiltrated her lung so it looked like the beginnings of pneumonia. They put her on an antibiotics again for 7 days. The doctor was supposed to come and see her.

Glad your mom is getting better once again. I know it's a lot of ups and downs with aging parents/grandparents. You just have to stay positive and take one day at a time. Glad she's on the rebound -mike
Glad they were quick to notice the change! Even the littlest details sometimes get lost in the day-to-day care. Glad she's feeling better and that she's upbeat!
