MJ update

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone:

Good news!!!!!! NO broken bones. How that is possible is beyond us.

MJ's bones have become very weak in the past couple years (is it any wonder with

all that she has gone through)! It seems that MJ just twisted her ankle and

sprained her knee or possibly tore cartlidge. We have a knee immobilizer to

help when moving her so the pain isn't too great! MJ decided that to save her

from future pain, she isn't going to let Wyatt up anymore. The risk is just

too great for her to break something and she doesn't want to be mad at Wyatt!

We went in for X-Rays...she had 7 today. Decided to do a chest x-ray

while we were there. Nothing new...just the same old stuff. MJ's lips were a

tad blue for awhile there, but after a few deep breaths and changing positions,

she got some color back. Still concerned with her CO2 level...we are pretty

sure that MJ can't tolerate a " normal " CO2 level and that is why she is so

tired. Not sure what to do about that though! She still has stuff in her left

lung that just won't go away!!! Other than that, nothing else is new. Have a

good day everyone!!!

To struggle - when hope is banished

To live - when life's salt is gone!

To dwell - in a dream that is shattered

To endure - and go calmly on.
