Your mom’s w tough old bird. If she can survive MERSA and being paralyzed for ten years, then she can beat this. Prayers for her.
FYI, I wouldn’t send my worst enemy to NOCH. I say that even though both my boys were born there. They missed a grapefruit size cancerous tumor my wife had. 3 times. Sent her home from ER each time. Told her to “ride it out” even though she was doubled over in pain crying. The last time, I demanded a CT scan. All the sudden we got all kinds of attention and an ambulance ride to DeVos. Which is where I recommend your mom go.
If she’s too stubborn, then ask for Dr Patel at NOCH. He’s the pulmonologist there. He should be able to get the MAs. Dr Walters is the head ER doc. I shoot with him. He might be able to get them too. Good luck!

I was seeing him for a time when I got my fungal infection in my lungs. Nice guy

She took a turn for the worse. Back in ER yesterday. She's in ICU but she is stable. Pneumonia and fluid around the heart. Doctor doesn't sound too optimistic.

Thanks. Stopped by their place a couple days ago. First time I seen her with a defeated look on her face. She stopped drinking and eating. Almost had to use a baseball bat to get water and and a bottle of ensure into her.

Don't think she's gonna survive this one. She's had pneumonia before, after their car accident that paralyzed her her heart was so beat up the doctors issued a DNR. She survived that.
Being on a ventilator now with basically 20%lung function...whole new complication.
Appreciate the thoughts and prayers. She's a tough ole broad and I hope she still has the will and fight in her
