Monday Aug. 31 I received a phone call from my brother in CA. he told me that mom was on her way to the hospital, when he called her she was very confused and he was very worried about her he kept her on the phone as he called my sister in SLC and anyway long story short Kathy called 911 and off to the hospital mom went with a blood pressure of 50/20 not so good. They found a hematoma by her right kidney, which they figured she got when she feel on July 22nd. A UTI (urinary tract infection) which turned into sepsis so at the time Kim called she was in septic shock not good considering that only 25 percent of the people make it after getting it. THANK YOU KIM for calling when you did. They drained as much off of the hematoma as they could and the body will take care of the rest. She is home now on antibiotics and doing pretty good she is weak but doing a little better everyday. We love you mom and remember when you come to visit I am going to take you on a Rhino ride in the red hills of Southern UT.
On Tues when I went to water the flowers at moms I saw this cute little lonely petunia in the driveway. As I was thinking and remembered the picture I took of the ambulance that brought Dad home the day he past away, it is sitting pretty much right where they brought Dad out of the ambulance. I am thinkin it is just a nice little memorial from his beloved flowers that he cared so much about. We love you Dad, keep those gardens beautiful. :)
