Loretta has decided she doesn't want dialysis.
I'll go in the morning to Anderson Mill just to make sure.She is very tired and just wants to die.She is pretty swollen right now. The nurse talked to all of us and explained to Loretta that the fluid will make her heart stop. Loretta said the doctor said her spine is gone. I'll talk to the doctor in the morning about moving her to a hospice facility...
By tonight, my mother has decided she is in too much pain not to get dialysis. Missing her treatments has caused much more serious swelling and her potassium levels are high as well as her blood pressure.
New text from my sister-in-law.
Fwd: Hi Jules. She is doing much better. Kids and Andy are here.They will do dialysis in the morning since her blood pressure is high.
MonsterMustDie wants to come with me to Georgia. This, of course
means taking time off the new job I am training for. I'll talk to my
supervisor tomorrow to tell him I've got to take Saturday through Monday
off so we can make the trip. We have keys to my mother's place so I
plan to just stay there in Kennesaw while we are down to see her. Don't
know what else to do. I mean I really don't know what to do or when to
do it. My mother is not answering or returning my phone calls. All I can
think of doing is just showing up at the hospice to see her.
