Monday Night & Tuesday Morning

Last night was a little difficult. The nurses were a little busy and were not so available to help Mom during the night. It seems like there was also some internal strife between the nursing staff and some technicians that unfortunately affected their patient care. This morning Dr. Muto filled in for Dr. Berkowitz assuring her that she was on the right track. A little later Dr. Fleming, Dr. Herndon, Dr. Boyce, Marissa, and Zach came in to see Mom. Dr. Fleming mentioned Mom's shortness of breath and explained that it is due to fluid pushing on her lung. Dr. Fleming said that they are watching it and if it gets worse they may need to remove some of the fluid through a minor procedure.
