4/22 Back to the Hospital with Congestive Heart Failure

Mom found it harder and harder to breathe, even with oxygen - so back to the ER where she was admitted with Congestive Heart Failure. That means she had water on her lungs and around her heart, making those organs overworked and inefficient. Medication (Lasiks -sp?) worked to relieve that pressure and the last few weeks mom had regained some strength and was no longer dependent on her oxygen tank. Fast forward to 5/29 - see next post.
