Talk about a long day.

The news on my sister was is so up and down I am dizzy. First thing this morning, the doctor says she has no change, then he says we think she might have a blood clot in her lungs, and that is why her O2 levels are so low. The after doing 2 test, they figure out she does not have blood clots. YAY!! But that her lungs are collapse and they don’t know why. And she has only about 1/3 of each side that is working. So he put a camera into her lungs and found that they are filling up with junk. I guess there are 4 half of the lung and the bottom 2 are not working at all and are filled up with junk and that is moving up to the top two. I hope that make since. Any way he tried flushing the junk out, and that didn’t work, so he put in a drain in her lung on the left side and if that seems to help, he will do the right tomorrow. I tried to come home for a refresh and renew but the doctor called me twice, asking if he could do this or that. So I tossed out my chicken soup, that was not settling all that great anyway, I headed back up to the hospital, and on the way, the doctor called once more, and I told him I would be there in 10 minutes and when I got there he hit me with having to put the tubs in her lungs to see if that would help.

When I left the hospital at 11:30 tonight, her O2 level was all the way up to 83, not good, but a tons higher then the past few days. So I hope he does the right side tomorrow and they are able to get her levels up into the 90s, (doc says he would like them to be 92 or higher)

I am going to head to bed and SLEEP!!! I have my coffee ready for the morning, and I am planning on getting up at 5 or so. Or theres about.

I hope I am able to give much better news tomorrow.

Lu, thanks for letting us know what is going on, as trying as it may be.  It helps to know what to pray for specifically.  It sounds like the doc is going good and paying good attention to your sister.  I hope someone is watching over you to make sure you get food and rest.  I'm sending out prayers...xo Kim

Have you ever meet Liz? or Rhonda? I should be calling them both mom. They are watching over me just like a mother hen would her chicks.

Plus everyone here. OMG! How every one cares.
