On last Friday my mom woke up acting so different I called rescue. They took her to the emergency room come to find out she had a severe UTI but had just been treated 2 weeks ago for a UTI. They had to put in another nephrostomy I think that's I think I'm pronouncing it right also they found that she had an abscess behind her kidney I was hoping that she would be up and responding back by now but the nurse said that she was very septic so it may take a while with the antibiotics. But my question is why she's in the hospital now she's starting to stiffen up real bad and in a lot of pains whenever you go to you know extend her legs and arm. So my question to anybody in the group have they ever experienced this with any of their parents and if so what was the outcome?

Her stiffening is probably due to the Sepsis. As Sunnygirl20 stated talk to her doctor.
My mom did go through this, it progressed to Septic Shock which she passed from.

I hope you can get some answers. Are they able to give your mother something to make her more comfortable? Have they told you if this is something that she can recover from?
