Mom is about the same. She had an MRI today, which will help the docs determine what all is going on in that foot of hers. They still plan to amputate sometime this week. Mom isn't doing as well emotionally because my dad has had setbacks yesterday and today.
In fact, the news isn't good regarding dad. He had a rough night and morning, vomiting and not keeping any food or meds down. He spiked a fever and is no non-responsive, except for a few groans here and there. This is not a drug-induced state, just something his body is doing on his own. The drs are drawing blood and taking urine samples to determine if this is the natural course the brain tumor is taking us down or if dad has contracted something viral. We are told from the hospice folks that this happens when one is near death; one begins refusing food, which he did on Saturday, and then begins detaching. So, we will wait and see, praying for God's grace along.
Thankfully, Bryan's grandmother is doing quite well, recovering from her hip surgery; well, as great as one can expect. She is still in ICU, but will likely be in a regular room tomorrow.
