one step forward and two (or 3) steps back

her nurse just told me she's had a real rough day

she's got a lot of fluid build-up inside so

she's BACK ON the dialysis machine

she's not getting enough oxygen and gases

so she's BACK ON the ventilator

in her mouth and down her throat

they're testing samples, they don't know

if she's got an infection or she's

rejecting her new lungs

she's BACK ON heavy sedation and pain medication

and maybe tomorrow they will do a

'open chest' biopsy

that's another surgery to take a sample of her

lung to see what's going on


WHAT'S GOING ON?????????

'the ride' continues

i'm not getting all the information

her nurse was very hush hush this morning

acacia texted me that she's had bad 'couching spells'

and that one of her lungs has 'collapsed'

the nurse confirmed this and said they're checking

for an infection and that the ventilator is helping

she's in with the doctor and her mom right now


the nurse said that they've had to raise the

oxygen level on her and now she's resting

didn't get a good feeling

-the way the nurse sounded and dodged my questions


i know she's in good hands

-in more ways than one and that

this long long process will be long

but, more prayers please

i'll post you as soon as i know more
