Sweety update........

Well lets see where do I begin?........Things where looking good last time I posted, but at 0430 last sunday the doctor called me here at the house and told me her pulse had raised to around 160, they where going to go back in and see whats going on, I had some one take the rest of my shifts and drove to Sedalia (208 miles away), they found that she was leaking again and repaired it. She is finally doing good, I have spent the last 6 days at her side and came home yesturday to go on call today. The average of 3 hrs of sleep a night had beat me down pretty good, needless to say I slept like a baby last night. She is sitting up and eating now, bowls are work great and kidneys are putting out she shoud be out of CCU either tomorrow or tuesday, that is my prediction anyway. It has been 2 weeks of living hell for us/me. Keep praying for her Bill

Hi Bill, I am sorry to hear that things have been so rough for her, and for you too. I certainly hope that she will continue to improve. You are still in my prayers. Pam

Bill - I guess I was wrong about what I saw in the post title - I'm sorry she was found to have another leak. That is just awful. I am so glad she is sitting up and eating now. That is just a wonderful sign! I have been following the situation of a fellow on my March board who got a leak and is still in the hospital. He is pulling through and going to be fine, but he did the same thing - leaked and then leaked again. But he wasn't able to do as your wife is doing and sit up. Perhaps he didn't get seen as quickly. Either way, she is ahead of him in the game already, so I have high hopes for her moving on quickly. I will keep her in my prayers and look here for your next update. Dina
