Better today!

Spoke to Mom & Ga and it sounds like she's doing better today. No fever, cough is improving...sounds like the new antibiotics are doing their job.

Dad is at home awaiting the new bed, and as soon as that arrives, Mom gets to go home! Ga is going to get rid of Bac Hanh's bed on Craigslist...the new one is bigger and has more buttons. See?? Hoarding does not always pay off :)

A nurse will be coming to the house on Thursday to draw blood. Mom will probably go off the Koumadin (blood thinners) in a month or two...and they will think about draining the fluid (chest tube) at that time. While Mom is still breathing at 94-95% capacity, they will also send her home with an oxygen machine in the case that her breathing becomes more labored.

We will need to keep a close eye on her while she is at home for shortness of breath and blood clots.
