Katieum Update

I didn't realize it when I last posted, but she'd actually reverted to square one this morning. Everything was out of whack, they couldnt' touch to her even roll her to change her sheets or her BP would bottom out.

She's stable now, and doing well with the dialysis. They set it up uber slow, to take a full 24 hours to complete, since she's been so touchy about everything else. She's doing well with that.

She's stablized again as of this afternoon.

Her parents took down some of her CD and they are being played for her. I'm making her a tape of stuff that's going on, people talking to her, etc, that I'll burn to a CD and send down there too. Just "hey, we miss you here's what's going on" type stuff mostly.

Strep is what caused all of this... she got a strep infection, the coughing irritated all the linings and whatnot and the strep just worked its way in there and into her blood. But she's doing well with the new meds, and the dialysis, and she's stable, and things are looking good right now.

Looking for two songs for a Katieum CD....

Brooks & Dunn "My Maria"

and "A little less talk, and a Lot more Action" by some female singer I can't remember Toby Keith.

Yes, both are considered Country songs.

Anyone have them or can point me someplace to download them? Thanks!

Edit: Also looking for "Just to See You Smile"

Katieum Update

She's backslid again, and the ventilator is back up to 100%. Basically, any time she's backsliding, she's having the same problems: temperature, blood oxygen, and blood pressure. On the overall scale, she's still getting better. Today, instead of her temp being too high, they've got a warming blanket on her because it's too low.

She's got CDs in there and the nurses are changing them out for her, and we're making more of them to send down there.

If anyone feels like saying something encouraging, send it to me in an audio file and I'll add it to the CD. (If you do, and if you call her Katieum on it, it'll make her laugh. I mean, that's not her name, it's something silly from six years ago at least! It makes her laugh in that amused/embarassed way when she's known as that... Otherwise, of course, Katie is fine.)
