I am sorry I haven't posted sooner. I have been most of the post to facebook via cell phone. As of right now mom has been on a vent after having problems breathing after her endoscopy Wednesday, they call it rapid pulimary edima. Since then she has also developed pneumonia. With the anitbiotic running the last few days on a drip and the fluids coming off her chest quite well, they did a test today and stopped the vent to see if she could breathe on her own, and she could. As a precaution they are keeping her on the ven tfor one more night and going to try to take her off it in the morning. After that we play it by ear. They will then try to determine what caused the rapid pulminary edima and then they will move on to the heart. I will keep you updated as much as I can.
Thanks,
Thedaughter

Sorry giggles, themom has so many contacts to the world on the net, meaning facebook, twitter, blog, etc., I can't keep up, that's why I do most posts on FB but I will try to keep this as current as possible also.
thedaughter.
I am hoping for good news soon.
Thanks for letting us know about her again. We are all very worried about her and you. Take care of yourself too. Themom is tough, she'll pull through this although I'll bet she is PISSED about the vent! Prayers and good thoughts coming your way. I'll check the updates on FB.
I was thinking about her yesterday; she couldn't have been happy about the Steelers game! I'm praying for her; keep us updated, and take care of yourself, too.
Thanks for keeping us updated. I know this is a very stressful time for you and my prayers are with you all.
I am so sorry your mom has had such a tough time. I will keep you all in my prayers for a speedy recovery.
get better quick MOM, we miss you!!
I hope things are coming along better now. We're all pulling for all of you.
Dear TheDaughter, thank you for keeping us posted. Tell her how many of us are pulling for her full recovery. We miss her.
I know this must be a terrible time for you all... thinking of you and your mom and missing her gems of wisdom and humor about all things life, politics and cats.
Hugs to you all,

It's been a while since an update here and for the benefit of those that might not be on Facebook I thought I would mention that Marie is home and has even posted a few words on her Facebook account.
