Hi, Jodi, and welcome. I personally have never asked what my life expectancy is and doubt that I ever will. I just try to stay in the day and not project too far out. And I'm a very big believer in HOPE!
Your mom and your family are in my prayers.

Hi Lori - I pray the aides/nurses at the short-term rehab unit get their respective acts together and start taking better care of your mom! Best of luck to your mom and all of you.
Trish
Thank you for posting, Mike. Your mom is an incredible woman, but I'm sure you know that. You're in my prayers.
Fay, so so so sorry that things have turned out the way they have. You, too, are in my prayers.

Hi Marian - If you can't get a dr. appointment immediately, I would suggest going to the ER. They'll do a chest x-ray there, and if anything is found, they may be able to schedule other tests (PET, CT, MRI) before you are discharged. Praying for the best.
