The most stressful, emotional week

Friday, July 13th, 2007 | 21 Comments

My Mom is doing fantastically. She was finally able to leave the hospital. The doctors found that she was extremely deficient in multiple vitamins including B & D (which can cause ALL the symptoms she was having.) Also, they found some liver damage and some shrinkage in the area of her brain that controls coordination.

They said she should recover 100% mentally, but physically they can’t be sure. She’s using a walker right now to help her get around. However, things are looking extremely positive. My Mom sounds better now than she did BEFORE she went into the hospital. Also she says she’s recovering physically quickly and thinks she’ll be fully recovered within a few months. When I first spoke to her after she was home I cried because she sounded so NORMAL again.

It’s still 1 day at a time, but they only get better. There are still underlining things to deal with, but honestly, that’s for her & my father to deal with.

Thank you everyone for your kind support.

Omg, that’s wonderful! I’ll never look at vitamins the same way again. I should make my mom take those women’s one-a-day vitamins…. Anyways, I’m really happy for you!!

That’s definitely a relief and a huge load off your shoulders isn’t it? I’m an atheist, so i’ll keep you all in my atheist equivalent of prayer… I guess that’s called ‘thoughts’. I’ll keep you all in my thoughts.

Ohh, I’m so glad your mom is doing good again! Sometimes you can feel better when you’ve seen a doctor, just by being mentally calm about not being critically ill. I always get better the day I’m going to go see my doctor Odd…
