Welcome to our blog. We are on a journey. This is an unwelcome journey. We are not out of the darkness and into the light yet so we cannot see the benefits of why this all happened. We are hoping someday we will be there, some day soon.For now we just want to have a place to share our journey with others so that maybe something we learn will help them. We also want to update those that are concerned for our mother. Our mother is Bonnie and she has been diagnosed with Guillain-Barre-Syndrome (GBS). We are her daughters, Terry, Donna and Jeanie. This is our journey.

Jan 3, 2009

Jan 3rd. My mom is worse. Now we’re wondering if that patient was contagious and she got something from her. They came in and started IV Magnesium and Sodium and wanted to get a stool sample again. Not sure why unless they did mess it up last night. Her BP is up again. No Thiamine today. Echocardiogram came back ok. More blood work. Knot in stomach, moaning, and diarrhea. Felt awful.

As a side note the hospital is dirty. Pee pad in wastebasket and poopy sheets left in room for 2 days. Toilet dirty and when asked to clean it she came in and I’m not sure what she cleaned but the poop in the toilet was still there. When told again they said they would get housekeeping. Not sure if it was ever done because mom had to go so bad that she couldn’t wait. Yellow gouk running down wall under medicine cabinet.
