Today is Friday, January 11, and this makes day 15 that my mother has been in hospice care.
Yesterday the doctor called me to let me know Mom was doing poorly. Her blood pressure and temperature are low. She is still not communicating or eating. She wanted to prepare the family. According to her she may last hours or maybe days.
Here's the deal. Mom has had low temperature and low blood pressure since she was hospitalized last month. They haven't been able to take either whole she has been here at Calvary. Not doubting my mother is going to die but I think because the staff is different each day the person on yesterday became alarmed by the temperature and blood pressure. I mean she may still pass on within the next few days. She actually looked better the last two days than she has all week. Go figure. I am with her now and she is still non responsive but apparently comfortable.
