1PM - She's exhausted.

Well...Mom is still having oxygen saturation issues. They sent Mom down for a chest x-ray this time, instead of doing it in her room. They said she's doing good but still has some possible swelling and fluid on her lungs. She still has to be on oxygen and tried walking her a little but ended up turning her back around because her levels got too low (even with wearing the oxygen while walking). So...they're keeping an eye on her.
She is cleaned up now, brushed her teeth and put on some makeup which makes her feel better...but she is completely exhausted. She needs some sleep, but doesn't seem to get more than rest right now.
She has a lot of visible swelling in the left side of her chest which is slightly warm to the touch...so we're keeping an eye on that too.
We sure appreciate your continued prayers. She feels mentally strong, we just need her physically strong too.
The picture is one of the 'Sick gifts' Chad brought for her. Her hands are puffy and still yellow from iodine.
