It Never Rains But....

LadyBug is currently sitting in the E.R. of a hospital up north. She went in for a visit with Dr. Plastics today. He said everything around the surgical sight looks great, and she is healing up nicely. He was concerned, however about the trouble she was having breathing, so told her to get a chest X-ray at the hospital.
    
The x-ray showed fluid in both lungs, plus a blood clot in the left lung. They are waiting for a room to be ready, or something right now, and our son StarGazer drove over to be with her. They said they will probably keep her a couple of days, but we don't know for sure exactly how long. They have her on oxygen, and I think, antibiotics, and will start her on anti-coagulants as soon as they can.
   
We don't know much at this point, but your continued faith and prayers are appreciated. I am quite worried right now, because my accompanist told me her husband's first wife died suddenly from a blood clot in her lung. We'll be walking a tight line until we can get LadyBug home again.

StarGazer just texted me. She will be there three days, with shots every 12 hours to thin the clot. Then she will be given pills which she will have to take every day for a month. I guess we will see her Friday night...

Just found out the clot is in her right lung, not her left. And she has to have shots every 12 hours in her STOMACH! She will hopefully be released Friday...

We will keep praying for her. It's a blessing that the doctor had the xrays done!

I am praying for her, too. We had a friend who got a blod clot in his lung, and he is fine now. Hang in there!
