Back in the hospital

It's Mandy again.  Just a quick entry to update you all on my mom.  She was readmitted to the hospital (UCSD this time around) this afternoon with similar symptoms of speech loss (not finding words) and "black out" where she doesn't remember what happened for short periods of time.  Fortunately when this occurred my parents were at a UCSD coumadin clinic having my mom's weekly blood evaluation. 
The doctors ran a few tests this evening, none have showed any signs of new stroke.  They will continue with more testing tomorrow to try and determine the cause and nature of what is happening.  Hopefully they will have some answers and a treatment plan.
My mom is very tired but seems to be putting up with all the tests.  She is hopeful that she will get some answers now that she is back in the hospital.  My dad is amazing!  He remains so incredibly strong and courageous through all of this.  I can see how painful it is for him to watch her be so ill and frail, but I he is determined to get her on the road to recovery. 
As always, I will try to update the blog whenever I have more news for you. 
Love to you all,
Mandy
