Guest guest Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 Hello Stilligans, Thank you so very much for all your prayers and good wishes! I KNOW they helped. Home to my own sweet bed by 9:15 tonight, now will sleep much better. I think Greg had fun plotting to mdisable m y scooter......thanks all who plotted with him , I think... :-\ :-[ :-D . He has stange sense of humor.... Doing this one handed, had three surgeries on right hand, still may need anoyher but no skin graft maybe, reminds me of our Cat but I am sure my will not be so damaged, caught it before the whole hand went black. It all happened so fast, within 24 hrs. Docs, hospital, family, friends been to good to me but I appreciate it.. Having home health come in to complete IV antibiotics every days, have in the arm plastic catheter installed to keep vein open [called a PIC I think] as veins gave out. Never got the chance to start the Kineret, but have a month worth in the fridge, probably good thing for now. Few complications but handling them well, Greg taking me to Idaho Falls daughter's house on Saturday, she will finish the IV's up for me and maybe some of the reunion folks can come visit me there on their way home. Could have been worse I guess but Ace, one of the docs, told me I scare him and surprise him how well I come back. This infection risk we all have with the drugs we have to use is not a light matter, please everyone, go to emergency room at the first sign 0of any infections!!!!!! Lots of love to you all, getting charlie horses in left fingers, lol got to go, it will take me a while to catch up but I will. If you want to talk.... till Saturday then , I promise to complete the conference hotel plan. Love you all, keeping you in MY prayers. So sorry for your loss , Tricia, hang in there sweet heart, glad you are home Tracilyn and Carey, Dan what a marvelous picture of your daughter. I know I missed many messages but need to sleep a while, love you all, Louise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
