good news from bed #3
her nurse told me that her blood pressure is stabilized
and her heart rate is good or at least understandable
so the doctors have decided to take her OFF the 24 hour dialysis
and just go to every other day for 4 hours at a time, great!
another day and another machine gone
she still is so frail and weak
while i was there a therapist came in and moved her
arms and legs around to keep 'em strong and flexible
she responded well, the therapist seemed happy
she's resting today, or trying to
they come in every few minutes to do something to her
-she's in good hands in more ways than we can know

I would have despiared unless I had believed that I would
see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living
Wait for the Lord, Be strong and let your heart take courage
Yes, wait for the Lord

sick people at the hospital shouldn't be the nurses
yes, it seems that maybe her nurse gave her something
she's got a fever and her white blood count is high
they don't know what it is
but they're treating her with some antibiotics
her blood pressure is still too high and her heart rate
is between 99 and 109. too high
she went to sleep while i was there
and she didn't tell me to leave
but this morning she's too sick to say or do anyhing
her mom came in to take care of her
she's really upset and has had acacia's main doctor in boston
start to get ON these doctors and nurses here in pittsburgh
she's on continuous dialysis and i think that's what's
happening with her blood pressure and heart rate
ya know, dialysis beats the heck outta you
let's just hope that her infection is nothing (or treated)
and that her kidneys heal and start working right again
