Phil and Maribeth got a call from Mom's nursing home this morning around 5 a.m. that Mother was having another one of her episodes and was non-responsive. They went over and she was slightly better but Phil decided a trip to the hospital would be a good idea. He called me several times today and all her tests were coming out OK. She "woke up" this afternoon and was able to talk, etc.
I just called her and she was totally "with it" and spoke clearly. Phil thinks they might adjust her meds and she might go back to her nursing home tomorrow. He has said before that he and her doctor think these episodes might be a type of seizure but none of the tests in the past have shown this specifically so there has been no official diagnosis.
The good news is that she has no pain and is mentally alert. It's amazing how the human body can bounce back after a downturn, isn't it?
