Once again, sorry for being E&T for the past few days. Mom checked into the hospital on Wednesday to finally have her gall bladder removed. And, of course, her surgery was delayed a day because the anesteasaligist didn't like how her legs were swollen and because he heard "crackles" in her lungs. So
Mom spent the rest of the day in her hospital bed on a water pill and dealing with the results of that. Also, neither the cardiologist nor the pulmonary doctor heard any lung "crackles" or saw any evidence of heart failure. So she had her surgery on Thursday with no problems. Right now she's enjoying a flounder for lunch--her first real food since Tuesday.
