Hospital again

Yesterday, Sunday, Mom was admitted to the hospital. She wasn't feeling quite right so Dad took her to the E.R. where they took x-rays. They said it looked like pneumonia. They admitted her right away. Later that afternoon Dr. Wright said it wasn't full out pneumonia, but they were going to treat it like it was. The radiologist is suppose to read the x-rays today and determine what it is for sure. I haven't heard back yet.

Mom had lots of visitors yesterday. Aunt Leora, Aunt Marja and Phyllis Jean were among them. If any of you want a good laugh just talk to my Aunt Leora. . .she is a crack up. We all love when she comes to visit. She always has a good story to tell! Kanani, Blain, and I also went. I (Lehua) don't have a built in babysitter like Kanani so Aaron stayed home with the kids. While we were there Dad said something that made us laugh, even mom. Dad was talking about how he was trying to get Mom a change of scenery. He tried helping her walk to the kitchen, but after a short distance she had to turn back around. Then he tried taking her for a car ride, but she wasn't up to it. He said he wondered where he would take her if they did go on a ride. Maybe to the cemetery he thought. . .uh no that wouldn't be a good idea. It was funny! Yesterday, in sacrament we learned that sometimes it is good to laugh when you have adversities. Indeed it did feel good to laugh. Another funny was when the nurse came in to give mom a shot of Levanox sp? (blood thinner). Before she gave it Dad asked what it was, she told him and he said I already gave her 100 mm of that this morning. She was instructed to give her 70 mm. 100 mm is all that she is suppose to get a day. After she left the room Dad said "see Norma good thing I'm here." Her reply was "I knew you were good for something!" I'm glad they can still joke around in such hard times.
