ICU Round Two...

As I'm sure you inferred from the title, mom is back in the ICU for sepsis. I know what you're thinking, "How could you let this happen again?" Believe me, I'm asking the same question.

Anyhow, she was transferred to the ICU this morning to be more closely monitored. Her blood pressure persisted to drop, and they felt she would be better cared for in the ICU.

She seems to be more uncomfortable and more confused today than she was yesterday, and I'm hoping it's just because things have to get worse before they get better.

We sang a few songs to her before she went to sleep tonight and they seemed to comfort her. I Am A Child of God seemed to be her favorite.

I just have to send a shout out to Sondra (mom's sister, my aunt) and a big Thank You for dinner tonight! It was a relief to not have to cook and she made it easier to get everything done. She's always there when you need her!

P.S. My bags are packed, and I'm boarding the plane for Chicago in the morning. Dad will take over blogging while I'm gone in order to keep you updated. Please keep mom in your prayers!
