...and hanging in there.
Mom took it "easy" today, holding off on both her 7 am and 3 pm doses. She had to have another bolus mid-afternoon to bring her blood pressure back up over 80 again and was nauseous and generally icky. Her eyes were back not focusing particularly well so she can't read and the rain delays in NYC mean that there's no US Open Tennis for her to watch, a particularly low blow.
After 24 hours off though she was feeling better enough (and the blood pressure was up over 90) that she's likely to get her 11 pm dose. If she can just get one each day that'll be enough for us. (For that matter, if all she has are these 3 we're okay with that too.
Send her good wishes to not have too rough a night (between getting the meds, blood pressure issues, and having napped a ton during the day she's expecting it to be ugly tonight).
I'll keep you updated.

I'm so sorry that this round isn't as "easy" as the previous one, but know you are being a trooper as always!! Here's hoping the tennis is on again to keep your mind busy and that things go a bit smoother for the rest of the week. Lots of good thoughts coming your way!

Hope your night was better and that you are able to hang in theree for a few more sessions. It is in the 90's here - be glad you are in a cool place.
