12/30/23 Update
Thank you all for checking in on Mom. Here is the latest update. She did have a great Christmas at our house. She was starting to recover well and then contracted sepsis and RSV on Dec 26.
Out of ICU and in a room at Roper Downtown. Still very lethargic and bedridden. RSV, Colitis, sepsis, multifocal pneumonia, and internal bleeding (probably from the colitis). Barely eating anything. She still hates hospital food. I cooked her some shrimp tonight and she ate a couple of them. I told her this is her last chance. She has to start doing the PT and OT and eating or she’s gonna die. She agreed to let me help her stand up etc tomorrow. Fingers crossed she wants to do the work when I get here in the morning. It’s heartbreaking to sit here and just watch her die because she doesn’t feel like moving. Palliative care is suggesting another try at rehab when she gets discharged from Roper. Not sure when that will be yet. Fingers crossed. Thank you for your continued prayers! George is living with us and seems to be getting stronger every day. -Jamie
