My Sister, whom some of you met on last August's Duck Cruise, is in the hospital.
She was on Coumadin. She fell last weekend and her entire side was a nasty sight. Friday, her feet started to swell so me BIL and Niece took her to the ER. They started her on vitamin K, which my Scottsdale Sis told me is used to counteract the anti-coagulant effects of Coumadin.
Last evening, they did an ultrasound and discovered a bleeding artery in her leg. They're treating it with pressure to see if it will heal itself. If not, they'll try drugs. Last resort will be surgery.
We'd appreciate any prayer and good wishes you can spare.
