Intensive Care

Short note: Kay has developed a very serious Lung infection. She was admitted to high care this afternoon and upgraded to intensive care this evening. She's having such difficulty breathing that she getting machine assistance, not quite the fully ventilated kind. The big proble is that it's not possible for the doctors to k ow what lung infection she has. Thus they have to guess and both of the top candidates require treatment with medication that is bone marrow toxic. So they have chosen to throw caution to the wind and blast her system with these drugs. This means that we'll be back to square one and she will need to boost. Theprocess of contacting the poor donor has be started today. Marion and I have passed through hell and are living what is on the other side.
