Our nurse this evening is named Allan. He is a very pleasant fellow and a good nurse. He is very proactive and seems to check on mom every 15 minutes.
This evening, Allan drained some fluid from Mom's sinus cavity. She had been breathing rapidly for several days and the fever has continued. After her breathing began to sound a little like snoring, he quickly identified that she had lots of sinus drainage.
Allan decided to drain the sinuses and send the fluid away for a culture. He believes mom has a sinus infection. This would explain the rapid breathing, fever and exhaustion. I hope the results will be in tomorrow so we can begin treating the infection.
This made me feel alot better because now we have a good idea what is going on. Now we can take action and fix it.
Thank Jesus,
Stephen
