still postive for covid

Results are back from  COVID 19  retest.  It is still positive, but mom is not running a fever or displaying any symptoms of respiratory distress. She has an IV because she was not eating well and they need to keep her hydrated.   
    Bobbie and brother in law Joe got to talk with her at her window.  They made mom laugh when they told her if she saw them dancing it would be because there was a large fire ant bed underneath her window.

    We are very pleased with the extra measures the nursing staff and administration are using in caring for our mom.  She is still very confused and distracted by the IV in her arm but not nearly as angry. 
     This morning she will get to visit with her favorite nursing assistant that she had formed a special bond with over the last year.  She knows our mom well and knows the best way to entice her to eat breakfast ( her favorite meal)  and encourage her to drink more fluids. 

     Thank you for your continuing prayers and words of encouragement.   We will continue to give periodic updates.
