Tuesday AM 09-23-08

Mom continues to have issues with blood pressure. The dialysis only pulled 400ml yesterday due to that problem. This was the lowest water take from a dialysis since she started the treatments. She continues to not have a temperature problem. I do not have her white blood count today. Other key elements were extracted OK yesterday in the dialysis. Her BUN is 39 (OK), Albumin 2.5 (remains low), Creatinine 2.8 (OK). Her mouth seems better. There is better clotting and no new blood detected when they swabbed the mouth this morning.

The wound therapist told us early afternoon that she was in more pain today than normal and the three places that appeared yesterday have remained the same. Tomorrow I will engage with the doctors to get an updated prognosis.
