My Mother had blood clots in her leg and internal bleeding on her right side.  Now she has edema and is being given several drugs (I don't know what all, as she wasn't sure) and morphine.  My family refuses to let me know what her condition is.  She has been told she will be in a nursing home for at least two weeks until the edema goes away.  It sounds like a serious condition to me and they are telling me nothing.
