Back to the Hospital

Josie's been confused since moving into rehab and has been resisting PT.  This morning when I visited her, she was sitting in a chair with a very runny nose but not very social...I'm not sure she even knew who I was.  After lunch the facility called to say that she had spiked a temp and they were starting antibiotics.  Late this afternoon they called again to tell me that they had sent her to the ER in Cooperstown because her temp wasn't responding to treatment and she had developed some respiratory distress.  They gave me a phone number and I called...but she hadn't arrived yet.  An hour later, she was there but they were waiting for the lab work.  Next phone call...about 1 1/2 hrs later, she was in X-ray.  Around 11pm, they finally decided to admit her for a UTI and pneumonia. They'll probably keep her until Monday...at least. The weather was suppose to go down hill tonight w/ freezing rain and since they hadn't decided to admit her, we decided to wait until they did. (If they had sent her back to the rehab facility we might have passed each other on the road!)   The weather is suppose to get better by noon tomorrow so we'll probably go down then.
