Sunday Update

Mom looked better this morning.  Her color was good, she was more talkative, and she had her eyes open for a good part of the morning talking to us.  Her kidney and liver numbers were better this morning than yesterday.  We were encouraged this morning, as were her physicians.  

This afternoon she started feeling significant pain in her right arm and chest.  Right now we're not sure what is causing the pain.  It has gotten significant for her, so she has been put back on morphine.  She is resting peacefully.  

Her blood pressure is holding steady.  Her heart rate is still elevated.  She has a slight temperature, and right now we are worried about infection somewhere in her chest or arm.
