Hi Everyone,
Today started out alright for Mummy: it was the 3rd day that she was off of the respirator. She wasn't feeling very good when Dad and Pratap Kaka went in to see her this morning. The doctors were thinking about sending her to the regular room as her condition had progressed for the past couple of days. She was able to eat and drink a little but was feeling very uncomfortable and had trouble breathing. Around 5:30 this evening, I got a call from my father telling me they were going to put her back on the respirator. So, mom's back on the respirator. I came home and just sat with mom for 45ish minutes. Her nurse tells me that things like this happens, patients many times have to be put back on the respirator. I know it's not something Mom would want but her body just needs time to heal. There are a lot of things that the doctors are concerned about right now and they are running some tests to figure out what caused her to have to be put back on the respirator. Mom was really anxious this morning and in caring for her the her nurse took a little longer in processing the paper work that would send mom to a room on the floor. Turns out, this was a blessing in disguise: had Mom been on the floor the nurses would probably not have been able to get all the equipment together in time to save her. We can't celebrate too early with Mom. Her recovery is going to take a real long time. She and we both have to be incredibly patient. I know she's a fighter but she might be disheartened to be back on the respirator. Dad is holding up alright thanks to the constant company of Pratap Kaka. He was naturally shooken up a bit when the pager started going off. But thankfully, everything worked out. Mom's body is now taking its on sweet time to rest and heal. Please please continue to pray for her and send her positive vibrations.
