Thank you, WLFEO and everyone else who takes a moment to pray!!

My daddy died only 17 months ago in the same hospital, same drama, and there were SO many flashbacks! But, we have a better diagnosis this time (my dad had an aneurysm that should have been caught 3 years earlier!), and we just feel surrounded by the prayers of God's people! She has already pinked up considerably, and was able to eat today!

You gave VERY good instructions! I'm a geriatric counselor, and I often tell people to do exactly what you said! Especially when you come in through the ER, there can be contradictions in care that can be fatal. Any person who goes to the hospital needs to have an advocate nowdays, but especially those who are our elders!
