Hi everybody... yesterday was full of ups and downs. I'm happy to report that Mom was finally taken off of the ventilator, which is a huge milestone. We were all very excited by this progress but she had a setback in the afternoon when she had a bit of a panic attack and her heart began to race and her breathing became very labored. The doctors and nurses are great though and really doing everything they can to make sure she doesn't have to go back on the vent.
Mom's kidneys still aren't working though so we are continuing with dialysis treatments until hopefully, hopefully, hopefully hers heal and start doing what they need to do again. That is what I'm praying for. More than anything I want to see her healthy and brought back home. As tired as I am I know that she is a thousand times more tired so I'm trying to stay strong for her. Everyone keeps telling us "baby steps" and "big picture" but boy do I wish there was a magic wand we could wave and make her all better.
Anywho, that's where I'm at. Still not crafting much as my mojo is understandably a bit MIA at the moment. Thus I leave you with yet another old class card.
Take care everybody. ♥
Beautiful creation Amy!!! You and your mom are still in my prayers.

I'm so glad that things with your Mum are moving in the right direction... from my position of not-in-the-middle-of-it I can see that every step forward is a positive thing but I wish it were quicker for all your sakes, I'll keep sending positive thoughts Donna ☺

ReplyDeleteVery cute card, Amy.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been aorund lately, so I didn't realize that your mother is ill. I want you to know that you and your mom are in my thoughts. My mother was very ill some years ago, so I can imagine how you feel. Believe in the "baby steps" - they worked with my mother, so they hopefully work with yours, too.
