Mom medical update
7 years ago
Alrighty, so she was lucid when the EMTs came by, and since we don't have power of attorney over her, we couldn't make her go and she flatly refused. I wan her to go so she can get help but what's important is she's awake and aware.
I probably should go into some details here, but I'll be as brief as I can. She has severe lymphedema issues that prevent her from getting up under her own power, but she's mostly been able to with help. Tuesday, however, she wasn't able to get up from her toilet seat and required EMTs to come out and assist her to her chair. The whole next day she had us lifting her from her chair like six or seven times, but each time sat right back down due to being too tired, and from that night through this morning, she's been in and out of lucidity, kind of like she's been talking in her sleep but while she's awake as well. This also coincides with an increase to her Citalapram, and during that whole three days she's had maybe five or six bites of food total. However, she is lucid now, and acting mostly like her normal self, so... I just don't know right now.
Right now, since she won't go to the hospital, we're gonna have to wait until her GP can get back to her on Monday and I pray he'll tell her to go to the emergency room at least.
