Thanks Maureen

My moms been admitted into to hospital today . After this treatment the mucus became so thick that she could not swallow anything . She needs some IV fluids to help her feel better . A stoma wound care nurse is being called in to help with the open wound on her neck . It's getting bigger by the day. The leakage from it is like a faucet dripping . It's just aweful and very painful . I have never in my life seen anything like this before .

I'm glad she was admitted . It will give me a little break for a few days .

Thanks gmcraft for the advice on the stoma nurse. I mentioned it to the doctor and a stomatologist is being called in .
