I think I have the early symptoms of pneumonia. My mother has it and is being treated with antibiotics, and I have been around her a lot.

I'm going to see a doctor tomorrow.

I visited my mother today in the hospital. They are performing all kinds of tests on her liver, kidneys, and more heart-related tests. They are trying to figure out the nature of congestive heart failure so they can more effectively treat it. They are also giving her diuretics to lower the swelling throughout her body.

We walked around the ward today, and she only stopped after about 50 steps, which is a huge improvement (she stopped every 4 steps before).

My anxiety is still up and depression is pulling me down - so I guess I'm ending up somewhere in the middle (I gotta have a sense of humor about this).
