well, we are still riding the roller coaster. my dad took my mom to the ER today. I was at the same darn hospital all day yesterday with Dave as he got his porta cath fixed. Anyway, she saw bright flashing lights this afternoon for 20 minutes or so, then had some other weird vision problems. being so close on the heels of her liver surgery they decided to play it safe and to get it checked out. They brought in a neurologist, her family doctor also came to the hospital and examined her, and both think she had a TIA (mini stroke) but she could have mini brain mets. head CT scan was clear. blood work was great. tomorrow she gets an MRI.
She's feeling great though and I had a pretty good time hanging out with my folks in the ER, we talked and laughed and had a good ole' time. The nruologist looked to be about 16 and I had to tell him so (well, I called him Doogie Howser when he first walked in which got my mom to giggling but by the end of his visit he and I were best of friends and competing to see who had the prettier child . . . dueling children photos). Mom is spending the night and I'm sure will come home tomorrow.
anyway, it's late and I'm tired so better close now. thanks for your good thoughts.
Karen
