My mom has a staph infection now. So I'm advising my sister and brothers not to stay in the hospital anymore. It really bugs me that most people get a staph infection from being in the hospital. There's something backwards about that.
My mom also has a lot of CO2 in her body due to her not being able to take deep breaths. When we take deep breaths, it helps our body get rid of carbon dioxide. As a result, she is lethargic and not responding much.
I guess she also had pneumonia but no one told us. They have that under control now.
Due to the staph infection, it doesn't look like mom will be moved to Kapolei tomorrow. Bummer.

It does seem ridiculous to go to a medical facility to get worse!. This also happened to my Grandmother. She went in to get her hip fixed and caught pneumonia there and died. That was a few years ago but could happen now evidently...
