prayer request for my mother [update @ reply 52]

She fainted yesterday morning, left the hospital against medical advice because she felt fine. She had a rash at that time.
I managed to talk her into letting me take her back. The ER doctor thinks she has Stevens-Johnson syndrome, a life-threatening skin condition that is a reaction to medication. They put bad cases in the burn unit because the top layer of skin dies.
My mother felt good last night, which is NOT typical of S-J. The treatment protocol isn't well-defined (debate over steroids). A lot depends on the body's resilience and my mother is in her late seventies.
She isn't a Christian, either. Prayers for her body and soul please.

my mother had knee replacement surgery at 83. Those Old-Timers are strong. I know your mother is. I will pray for her soul and body.

Amoxicillin for a week. And S-J leaves the body terribly vulnerable to infection, but the whole penicillin class of antibiotics is ruled out now.

The MDs excluded shingles. The rash is all over and it doesn’t hurt like shingles.
