As some of you know, my mom went to Colorado to stay with my sister after having a stroke last summer. She has been rehabbing there. during OT/PT sessions, her heart rate has been unsteady, dropping to the 40s.
So the cardiologist decided to put a pace maker in. this took place this morning!
I was unaware this was all happening, as my sister Rose in CO did not call me.
Rose told my other 2 sisters, but not me. One of my other two sisters was supposed to have called me.
anyway, i have been praying since. Rose just called me and my mom is doing fine. the pace maker is in and working ok. After a day or two, she will be out of the hospital again. i wanted to talk with my mom, but Rose was on a cell phone, so she could not bring it into the room--because of the pace maker of course. Well, Rose was supposed to give me the phone number to my mom's room so i could talk to her.
sorry this is long. i am irritated. instead of calling me from the hospital room and letting me talk with my mom, Rose opted not to. She told me my mom was being noncompliant with lifting her arm--she's not supposed to for a period of time after the surgery. so Rose told the nurse to give my mom a pain med and let her go to sleep! :huh: so i didn't get to talk with my mom.
I am just so frustrated with my sisters. They have always kept me in the dark...all my life. I just wish they would let me in on it when it has to do with my mom!
Please just pray for my mom's healing and recovery so she can come back home to NY, and for my peace of mind towards my sisters.
