Update on Samantha

  1. Well, the doctors were talking about maybe coming home tomorrow (Wednesday) but tonight Samantha spike a fever of 103 and was having a bad headache. They drew a blood culture, and her fever did break, so now it is a waiting game to see what the doctor says tomorrow.
    If she is in the hospital on Thanksgiving I am cooking everything and having Thanksgiving at the hospital with Samantha.

    I will update once I know more.

Samantha

She has not had any more blood, and seems to be doing well. Discharge date is still up in the air, but doctor talking like it will be before Thanksgiving.
Meds and airway clearance should be starting back soon.

Samantha

Ok, so before I could get it updated that Samantha was home from the hospital (she came home Tuesday), she has been put back in the hospital. At 5AM this morning she started coughing up blood so we were ambulance bound to the hospital. She has since stopped bleeding and seems to be doing ok. She will be in the hospital at least through the weekend and then reevaluate from there.

Samantha

I had to run home to take care of some things and thought I would update. Samantha is showing improvement, and is scheduled to be discharged tomorrow morning. We should be out of the hospital in time for her fittings for the fashion show. She is getting so excited about it.

Update on Samantha

Sorry it has taken so long to update. The internet in Samantha's room is not working. So....she seems to be showing some improvement, she might get out Monday...still don't really know for sure.
Her sputum culture is showing that she is growing Enterobacter again (the same thing that caused her to be so sick Dec 2007/Jan 2008).
They have her on 3 IV antibiotics in the hospital, but I am not sure how many she will come home on.
She has her fittings for the fashion show on Tuesday. If for some reason she is not ready to be discharged by then the doctor is going to try to get her a leave pass long enough for us to go do the fitting and then go back.

When I know more and get back on the computer I will update again.

Samantha

We will be going to the hospital in the morning for Samantha to be admitted. This cold or whatever she has been fighting just has not been kicked by the oral and inhaled antibiotics, so the doctors feel that it is time for IVs, and to go ahead and do them before we get into the holidays and Samantha's fashion show.

I will update when I know more.

Great Surprise for Samantha

So a great surprise for Samantha today. She got to go to the FL/GA game here in Jacksonville and got to meet the FL cheerleaders. She had an absolutely wonderful time.
Pictures will come sometime over the next few days.
We have been going since 10 this morning, so now it is bedtime.
