How my gut feels:
Looking NE from 7th floor hospital room. The clear open sky area to the far
right is over Lake Michigan.
Looking directly North
To the far right background building with wind sock pole. I watched a
flight for life helicopter land and takeoff earlier today. That's the back of the main hospital which is also to the far left in the pic. The larger building straight ahead is Children's Hospital, and we're in the 12 story cancer center
behind the main hospital.
Marianne had 1 liter of fluid drained from her left side Plurea (lung) area yesterday. Still more in there.
The upper and lower nodes were completely collapsed, breathing shallow
and hard, Oxygen level low (on 2ml). Still breathing is difficult today, and oxygen at 1ml. She's in worse shape now than when she went in Thursday.
Fecal transplant has been cancelled, and she no longer has CDI-NAAT. ??
Its like nobody knows what to do, except order more tests.
Right before I left, She has an Italian ice. Less than a minute later, it came right out of her, no warning. WTF?
Checking for CMV NAAT, but not until/maybe tomorrow. WTF? This is a similar infection to CDI NAAT, but requires different treatment.
Possibly her (2) different cancer meds. Well ****, the disease or the meds to fight the disease will be her demise. Both of us knew this about the drugs, even the prescribing Oncologist knows this, but the choice is take the drugs, or hospice.
**** me.
