Thank you very much everyone for your thoughts and prayers.
My Mom died on Monday. No one is quite sure yet exactly what happened, but there's going to be an investigation. Something happened to cause her brain to become very swollen. When that happened, there was pressure on her lower brain, which controls things like heart rate, consciousness, breathing etc. In someone who had already had a bad stroke, it was just too much. We think she might have had at least one "low oxygen event" which may have caused her brain to swell. There was at least one time that we walked into her room and several of the red warning lights were on, on the respirator. We've noticed a tendency all along for the nurses and other medical personnel to not pay enough attention to respiratory issues. In fact, at Stony Brook University Hospital, on a past visit, they didn't think it was necessary to have her on an oxygen monitor at all. ( I've heard NOTHING but bad things about Stony Brook Hospital, and that was our experience too. ) Anyway I guess in a way all that's for later. The lawyers are going to have to sort it out. I don't know what else to say right now. Right now I'd just like to thank everyone again for their thoughts and prayers.
