Sorry it took so long to let everybody know how the last procedure went. Jessica had to go home. She was doing most of the updates and being mom and newly engaged she still gave a week of her life to caring for Kathy. Thank you Jess!
Kathy now has four tubes going into her back to drain fluid around lungs, two on each side. 800 CCs out of left side already. 600 CCs out of right. Breathing much better! Her swelling is way down too! She gets to stay in Trauma Recovery instead of going back to ICU, as long as her condition doesn't worsen. Surgery still planned for monday.
Rhonda & Michelle are here taking care of Kathy. She has been washed and has a new gown on. Kathy is weak, but in good spirits.
So glad to hear that Kathy is breathing better and gets to stay out of ICU!! Thank you all for the updates!
