Ribh's D'Coopage

That made me think of this. How is Alpia's eye since you rinsed it again?

No more trouble, @BY Bob. Both eyes are clear & no respiratory Issues. Nice of you to think of her.

I was trying to do drama. I guess @Ribh was right.

A Comedy of Errors!

Folks, I need prayers... Sue is in ICU at Vanderbilt... She had a major brain loss.

Oh my gosh... what happened!?
I started reading from the end and had to find this to see what’s going on...

I am very glad to hear that. I was quite worried.

I was a bit panicky when it reoccured but I think the wind & dust & being so close to the ground & she gets things in her eyes. I'll just have to keep a bit of an eye on her when things are blustery.

Sue is doing well now. Some sort of stroke if I have understood Bob's explanation properly. She has all of BYC pulling for her...because rooting & rutting have bad connotations here though ACM may still show me up for a poor choice of words!

Of course I was right. It's a circus round here!

Good morning Beautiful sunrise... Just got off my con call with our team in AUS... Today has been a good day. We've got one more test ahead of us and then Sue will be able to eat and drink on her own. When I got there this morning she was alert and talkative... I asked her why she wasn't answering the doc's and nurses questions and her answer was clear and concise: "They piss me off" So I explained why they ask and why they aggravate her... And told her she needs to play nice so she get's the right treatment.

I met with the ICU doc today and his concern was she was non-responsive to him and the nurses. So I walked her through the questions and she answered all of them right except one... My name is now "Pain in the butt" and she smiles when she says it. The doc was ecstatic. And ordered speach to come see if she was ready to move off of the feeding tube. We learned that the angle of the bed made a huge difference. @45* all she wants to do is sleep. @60* She's bright eyed and bushy tailed. Okay, I hate medical terminology. Technically she has had a hemorrhagic stroke. As the speech lady provided ice and water to test whether she was ready for real food, she hated the taste of the ice and water. It turns out that this is a common side effect of stroke. She brought her apple juice and she guzzled it down. Then she ate gram crackers and then gram crackers with peanut butter. So hopefully soon they will drop the feeding tube.

Okay I saw this... so sorry to hear this.. it’s scary..
