Status: Still unstable. Now they think she has an Upper GI bleed but they are treating it like an ulcer because she isn't stable. They can not do any procedures until they can get her stable. They did find 2 leaky valves that can be repaired but they again have to wait. I have been there 8 hours a day to make sure the nurses are not over dosing her. I walked in once and they gave her one medication and 20 minutes late they came into give her the exact same meds. If I wasn't there they would have over dosed her. NOw we just wait. I was able to get ahold of Theson. He is now well informed so I would like to thank John who found him Past the Velvet Rope. You were a big help and greatly appreciated. As for now I am out. I have to get some sleep. I will keep you up to date as I get updated. Again Thanks to everyone!!!

You are so welcome and thank YOU for the update. I hope themom is as comfortable as possible. I know you must be wore out, so I hope you get some much needed rest. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank you for the update. We won't stop our prayers and vigilance until she's completey recovered and home safe and sound.
Give her my best and tell her I am thinking of her.. She and you all will be in my thoughts and prayers..
Thank you for watching out for her and for updating us. Tell her we ll miss her and are rooting for her. And okay, tell her we love her too damn it.
Thanks for the updates. Marie: hang in there and keep the faith. We are pulling for you!
Yes there are many medication errors in hospitals these days but there are procedures in place to make it more difficult to do it. It was good that you were there at the time and prevented this potential error. Does the hospital use barcoded identification bands? Do they use a handheld computer when giving meds? These are supposed to make patient identification more certain and errors more difficult to happen.
Give her our best from Florida and we'll be thinking of you all.
Thinking of you all.
Thank you for taking the time out in all of the running and worrying that you're going through to keep us posted. Tell her doctors that they should ban politics until she's stable. We can't have her getting agitated!
You are all in my prayers.
I have already taken away her CNN priveleges. she is not allowed any stress. As for the medication mangement there... it sucks!!! They use no form of hand held computer to track and they very seldon take the chart where they go to log what they have done. But, all I can do is be there to make sure it is right. They said today she will probably be in a week and home in bed for at least a month. She is SOOO NOT HAPPY!!! Thanks again to everyone and I will be back soon.

That's right, no CNN, no MSNBC. Thanks for keeping us updated, and take care of yourself, too!
Thank you again sweetie - please take care of yourself too so that you can be there for your mom, who is loved by so many of us. Tell her we miss her funny snark and we are all pulling for her, you and your family.
Thank you so very much for keeping us updated.
Please tell Mom that Dusty sends her love and Buddha prayers.
Oh and those suckers will kill ya if you don't have someone paying attention. I know from personal experience.
Definitely a good idea to keep her away from the media madness.
Tell her all is right with the world (tho' she knows this is BS) and that even the Palinator is acting like a grown up. That might be good for a smile, at least.
All my best to you all,

I hope things are still going along as well as can be expected.
Tell her she's in my prayers.
