Hi all,
Some here may remember over a year ago my sister had come down with a staff infection and lost here toe. Well seemingly she broke the one next to the one she lost not really realizing it. Went to hospital in Bryan last night telling them about her toe and they only xray her foot and not her toe. So told her yes there is an infection wrote out a scrip and sent her on her way. Her and her hubby decided to go to the Defiance Hospital and had an xray done again and they got it right down there. Unfortunately the news is not good. by the time she got there her toe was black and there is indeed an infection and she will loose this toe as well. I wish there was something I could do for her to make her feel better. She has been through a lot since our Dad passed away . I just want her not to be in pain anymore and get Doctors that know what they are doing.

Hi all, I was just informed by Bill that Alta is in ICU on a ventilator. They have been having a hard time getting the fluids to drain and lasix is not working. She at this time has fluid on the bottom of her lungs,lower back and through out her legs. If we ever needed your prayers for her we need them now. Kevin

Update from my niece.
The doc says they need to do surgery to get the fluid off her lungs but to be able to do that they need to make sure she will survive through surgery first.
The reason they don't think she would make it through surgery us her heart valve is leaking.

The admitting diagnosis is congestive heart failure but it sounds like there is more then just that going on.They have her in a medically induced coma. She tried to refuse the intubation but the doc told her if she did she would die.

There has been change and thank God for the better. She should be off the ventilator within 24 hours. She has gotten rid lots of fluids . Her Kidneys where not in good shape when she was admitted but they have now improved. Sometime soon she will be gettin a heart cath to see where her heart valve is leaking. She is also responding to yes and no questions.
