my mom is doing............
OK.
she had a blood transfusion last night. in the middle of the night. her blood pressure dropped too low. and lucky her DR. had ordered blood just in case it was needed. since it was.
um today she had to sit and stand, and walk a little. she hated it. agonizing i'm sure. and part of it was no meds until she saw the surgeon after the transfusion. why i don't know. anyway
she's fine. anemic but fine.
i took the little kids and visited for a little bit between swim lessons today.
super rad. i barely made it on time for Hope's lesson. but at least i did. rad.

Glad she is doing ok. I hope she is doing great soon. Way to go super mom balancing it all at once. You are RAD for real!
I was here...
Okay seriously, I'm sorry to hear about your mom, but total blessing that her DR. was on the ball. My sister-in-law had a blood transfusion and said is was super weird. She didn't feel like herself. I hope that things go well for your mom. Way to be there for her.
I hope your mom is feeling better soon. How awesome that you are there to be with her!
If anyone complains about you not getting enough done in a day, just have them take over and see if they can do it all! I believe that what ever goes around comes around, so all of us that complain about others better watch out because it will come back to bite us one day!
I'm glad the DR had the transfusion ordered "just in case"!! Your mom is so great...I hope she's back to feeling 100% soon!
ok that is where you need to be... with your mom. i hope things get better for her soon.
♡ That sucks that she couldn't have drugs for a while!!! I'm all about the doping up!!! I hope she recovers very quickly!
Sorry to hear about your mom! I hope she starts feeling better soon!
your mom and your whole fam are in my prayers...i hope she continues to get stronger and feel better!
I've heard that is really painful. I hope she recovers quickly.
I'm glad she's doing better now and that it was caught soon. I can't imagine how painful the recovery from that kind of surgery would be!!!
tell your mom good luck from me. I am sorry, what a scary thing. She (and you girls :-) look great in the hospital pic though! It will be worth it to walk around on a new hip with no more pain later!!
I hope your mom heals quickly! She'll be in my thoughts!
I take care of a lot of patients that have hip replacements. It's not uncommon to lose enough blood to warrant a blood transfusion. I'm glad it went well. I am wondering why she didn't get any pain meds until the surgeon came though? Hmmm... Well she has a few rough days ahead of her with physical therapy and what not, but keep up the great support! She will need it!
Needing to get blood is never good. I wonder what her H/H lab values were, and the repeat.
As much as it sucks, moving a little makes for faster recovery.
Good to hear your mom is doing ok. Getting up to walk after her procedure sounds TORTUOUS!
Hope she is feeling bettter today!
I'm glad your mom's okay!! I hope she starts feeling better soon.
I hope your mom starts feeling better!!!
