More News

The doctors are concerned that since mom was not able to breathe deeply due to the pain of the infection and all, she has the potential to develop pneumonia. (There is some "gunky stuff" in her lungs.) So, today they started breathing treatments and will be trying to get her up and around more so she could take more and deeper breaths. They will also be putting in a central line so she can get rid of her 2 IV's and other needle pokes. All this to say, she is doing well, but it seems healing from this kind of surgery/illness can be complicated. Our sincere thanks to all who are praying for us.
