Please say a quick prayer for Mom. They've taken her to ER. She's bleeding from the bowels and it won't stop. She had this a few years ago and it took several days of IVs and medication to get it under control. I'll keep everyone informed as I can, and thanks...

Thanks, Marilyn. They've admitted her and are working on the problem.

The bleeding stopped last night and Mom rested comfortably. Since a colonoscopy was done a couple of years ago when this first started and nothing was found the Doctor has an idea of what may be causing it. They're going to try something today so we're praying for a positive result. Thanks to everyone for their prayers...

Mom has had three colonoscopies in the past couple of years and everything was fine, so her doctor believes it's the blood thinner Plavix which she's on that's doing this. He's taking her off that and substituting baby aspirin. She's very fatigued from loss of blood so they are keeping her this weekend to build her back up.

That's what I take...aspirin 81mg.
Glad it seems to be an easy fix.

They've given Mom a full unit of blood and transferred her to West Vue nursing home for a few days of rehab. She's still very tired but hopefully she'll be back on her feet sometime this week and can go back to her apartment at the Manor.

They're giving Mom B12 shots to build her back up and she's feeling great! Looks like she'll be staying through Sunday.

Praise the Lord, Mom is headed back to her apartment at the Manor! She's feeling great and is looking forward to her own recliner... Thanks to everyone for your prayers, they are greatly appreciated.
