We are all amazed at this last re-schedule, again, because of more urgent cases. She is now scheduled for surgery on Friday . Marlene has researched Mama's value's and requested that her cardiologist review it as she saw some respiratory problems creeping in.
Dr. Deil ordered some new treatments for her lungs and some new meds. Marlene is monitoring things very carefully. I have absolutely no idea how families survive who don't have their own version of Marlene. Because of her we are aware of state of the art care and we try our very best to be sure that we get it. So far, we have incredible success stories to tell, and we thank God for every single one of them.
Thru all of this, Mama seems in good spirits according to Greig, and looks better than she did this morning. They will be putting in some sort of port (Marlene's Idea) tonight so they can get blood and start meds without trying so many times. They got someone up from anesthesia to start a line tonight so Greig says.
So Mama is resting tonight and we will all get a good nights sleep hopefully. Please Please continue with your prayers as we are not 'out of the woods yet, and you are all such wonderful support for her and for all of us.
Thanks for the comments, keep up the good work. Connie is printing all of this into a notebook for mama to read while she is rehabing, but we will keep her posted in the meanwhile.
Good night all,
Sharon

Thanks to all of you so much for keeping up on posting ... it's really helpful and reassuring to be able to read what's going on. Grandma -- hope you (and everyone else) had a restful night and the new treatments have been started (and are kicking in). We will definitely continue praying for you. And hopefully Friday will come more quickly than we all realize.
Jacqueline is doing well in preschool and really likes it. Vincent discovered the china cabinet in the dining room and likes clinking my coffee cups together (although I really don't like that much!). We'll see you soon.
Love, Shannon
