Conniecat update 6/1/10

[Scrapbook Lady]

Her son gave this information last night. Please keep her in your prayers.....


She's intubated now, and can't talk. She is aware of her surroundings, though she doesn't stay awake often. They're slowly backing off her oxygen and she seems to be responding well. They'll eventually stop it altogether, and if she's able to breathe on her own and keep up her pulse ox, then they'll pull the tube. That will take a couple of days at minimum.

They've been able to purge a lot of fluid from her system via dialysis, but her phrenologist believes her renal failure to be permanent. We'll have to discuss that with Mom once she's recovered further...

Still saying prayers for Connie.

[Cruise cutie]

thanks for the updates, and the weaning her off and getting the intubation gone is a huge battle..and then seeing her decision to even *DO* dialysis*...my prayers on her extremely fragile diagnosis..and deciding treatment after the breathing is set..her battle is unbelievable for tackling..I pray for her coping...fortitude,health care decisions; and honoring her wishes...Joanne

 

[gram]

We must continue lots of prayers. Connie is a fighter and lets pray she can pull through this.

May our Lord watch over Connie and help her heal!
