    Thanks everyone for your warm wishes. After several hours in the ER with blood tests and x-rays being done, they said Mom has cellulitis in her right foot. She still is unable to walk, but they sent her home after giving her a shot of anit-biotic and prescriptions for more.

    I wheeled her out to the car and after we got home, one of the older boys lifted her up and carried her to her room. She is able to use her walker and scuff her feet over to the bathroom(thankfully) She has to see her doc on Friday morning to see if the anti-biotics are working. Hopefully it is and she can get around a bit better.

    Thanks again,

    Sadie

    I feel for you., taking care of a sick loved one is not easy. When my Dad was sick and dying..we moved in with him to take care of him.We lived in the country and he didn't want to move in with us.(Stubborn).But I knew when they get older they like familiar things.I was still working and I remember calling and checking on him at home. I had used all my sick days up and was very frustrated!..I could have had a family leave at no pay and and take a chance of not having the same job when I came back..

    I hope your Mom does good. Is that some sort of infection in the leg vein?

    My brother had something similiar but his leg vein would close up in spasms and cut off the blood supply to his toes!..He ended up losing his second toe.

    She should be up and walking soon if the anti's work.

    Keep us posted..

    Snoozy..aka..Golden Girl.
