Grandma Schroeder is in the Hospital.........
Grandma got extremely disoriented so the nurse at Washington Terrace decided to check for the UTI...not only did she have a UTI, but she was extremely dehydrated and her kidneys were compromised. She was taken to Ogden Regional Medical Center across the street to be treated due to the fact that the usual treatment is to force fluids, problem with her is you don't force fluids on someone who also has congested heart failure...she needed total monitoring for her heart and lungs. She was admitted..
These were pictures of tonights visit. She didn't know either Gary or myself. Max came over for just a minute and she did know him. She is fidgety and nervous. As you see in these pictures (sorry they aren't real good...cell phone pics with the lights low) she looks really out of it...she is. Mumbling, talking to herself...no real communication with us at all. The cardiologist wants to meet with us tomorrow...he needs to discuss her heart. I already knew her heart was wearing out, I think it is worse now...tomorrow is going to be a long day. She needs some prayers..We know that the Lord is in charge of this and he will determine what the outcome will be...we are ok with whatever happens...she is tired...Gary and Trevor gave her a blessing...she has loved ones waiting on the other side for her with open arms and peace....I told her tonight it was ok for her to go to sleep..she nodded and said ok....go to sleep grandma..your little sister, brother, dad and mom and Dave are waiting for you....it's ok...
