We were able to get Elaine home from the Hospital today after a 2-day stay. She was diagnosed with Hyponatremia (low sodium) and Urinary Tract Infection. They treated both with intravenous fluids. Meagan was one of the nurses who gave her excellent care. She and Julie were good friends as little girls. Carolyn has had a most demanding week with Ben having been diagnosed with blood clotting in his leg from the groin to the knee. Carolyn has done a lot of research on possible side effects of medication since both Ben and Elaine have been on Plavix. Elaine took a good 2-hour nap this afternoon and did some reading & TV. We have had a "walker" for some time and Carolyn put the wheels and gliders on it this afternoon. Elaine is using it within our apartment and to go to supper with me this evening. We are expecting Verlon to get in later this evening. It's been a long day.
Keeping her in my prayers! I've been gone this week but was glad to hear she was able to be back home. Thinking of you all.
