69.144.143.11She is supposed to be released today - well 5 hours ago !! She is pre-diabetic it seems like and they are sending her with oxygen. We are waiting on the company to come set it up and she hasnt been released yet until that happens. So she has diabetic testing stuff and oxygen. The Dr wants to see her thursday and if all goes well, Friday morning they leave. - Re: She is ok I guess

69.72.22.16Good to hear she is able to be released. Hopefully she'll continue to recover when she gets settled back home.
My husband has diabetes. If your MIL does go on medication, she'll feel much better overall...although diet change is the best treatment. - Re: She is ok I guess

69.144.143.11well shes not taking that medication, they were supposed to give her the lancets, etc and never did. said her insurance would have to pay for it and they needed to go to a pharmacy to get the stuff. Just crazy and thats the second worst hospital Ive come across - second to St Thomas More here in Canon City. - Re: She is ok I guess

71.128.111.103Thanks for the update, Britt. Waiting like that is the pits. I hope she gets home soon and can get comfortable and relax with you a bit before going home. What a hard trip this has been for her. - They got in pretty late tonight

69.144.143.11but so far everything is ok. I REALLY think its premature they sent her back - another 24 hrs would have done her good in the hospital. She is very weak, coughing up a lung, things just havent been very good and being around 4 kids is really just stressing her out too much. Just think its really too early for her to be out - This is health care at work Britt

67.188.93.9they always send you home *early* as that is all insurance will pay. I am sorry for your family. It is tough with 4 kids and a sick relative. Your kids are all little so they can't really understand that grandma is sick and needs quiet. - yes, Britt, give us an update...
