Mom's condition has been the same all day. She did, however, open her eyes today once with the nurse and once with Uncle Karl and I. So that was a very nice surprise.
Mom is in the cardiovascular intensive care unit under the care of a nurse who monitors her every minute.
She is still under heavy sedition and because of that, she is on a respirator and will continue to be until she is off the sedition and can sit on her own.
The temporary pacemaker is working but whenever it kicks in, her blood pressure drops, so the nurse is trying to work with her medication to balance that somehow.
The nurse gave her Plain today and she will need to stay on it for a while.
They are finding it difficult to get a pulse in her feet, be the color in her feet is not bad. I'm not sure what that means.
I asked what it implied that her condition was mostly the same all day, but the nurse said that no one knows, and that we would know more tomorrow.
