Update on my daughter

Thought I would give an update on my daughter. First I would like to thank all of you for your prayers, good thoughts and comments for all of us.
She is still in the hospital for one week already. The doc came around this morning and said he was going to change her antibiotic for her IV today. The other one has made her legs break out in a rash, made blisters inside her mouth and on her tongue and lips. She said she can hardly swallow. I hope this one doesn't give her any side effects. They did another biopsy on her back in the incision last week but they haven't told her any results from it yet. I pray that she gets better soon. We have no idea when she will get to come home.

I am headed to see my DR this morning right before lunch. Hopefully to get something for this back and maybe a vitamin B12 shot. I am so tired I can hardly walk. I am going to see about getting the B12 shot on a monthly basis. I need all the energy I can get.

This is one of our wildflowers just bloomed this morning. As with most of them that have bloomed I have no idea what kind it is, the plant is about knee high. Looks kinda like a miniature hibiscus.

  4. You have a right to be worn out as much as you have been through...and it wasn't that long ago that you had surgery too. I hope and pray they find out what to do to help Mira. God bless her, she has been through so much.
    Keeping you all in my prayers,

  6. No wonder you are so tired. Pain, stress and worry all take such a toll on the body and mind.

    I wish Mira's doctors could find the right medicine to make her feel better. What a long stretch of suffering it has been for her.

    You give us all this bad news, and then make us smile with your lovely flower photos! As if you are trying to cheer US up! May you both be feeling better soon~

  12. Poor Mira, I pray the new antibiotics will help and not give any side eefects. No wonder you feel lacking in energy Helen, all this must be an awful drain on you. Let's hope Mira's biopsy will show something positive for her, it's been going on forever now and must be such a worry for you and Ken. We have those same flowers over here growing in hedgerows, they're very pretty and bright. Love and prayers to you and your family. Jeannette xx
