After much delay and anguishing and frustration after frustration... delay after delay. We finally have "liftoff".
A pill is a bit of a misnomer... unless you say a pill five times.
So there was some vomiting last night, and apparently a fever. Labs drawn and cultures sent. The upside is it seems that finally the epidural is working... or something is. Perhaps it's all the prayers?!?! At any rate, she hasn't taken a hit off her PCA for approaching almost 24 hrs now... cold turkey.
She's also gotten some acupressure done (as have I) and we will be doing some acupuncture and electro stimulus on her tomorrow. One pill in and she has to go to the bathroom. Still have four more to go. Each and every one causes me great stress praying that they can all live harmoniously down there in her belly and go where they need to go and do what they're supposed to do, but first and foremost... stay down!
KEIYTAP and we will get (and keep) this on the run.
At times unwanted, but often are we uncomfortably thrust into living with it. To borrow part of a line from the movie Heartbreak Ridge, "You adapt, you overcome"...
In memory of Emmah ~ KEIYH
A small request... please
I have a small request and it won't take up much of your time.
Now that Emmah's spirit has left her physical body behind and has completed it's journey "home" I would very much like if you could all take a moment and reflect on Emmah... whether you knew her personally or not. Let us know how she touched/affected or made a difference in your life.
I especially would like to hear from those of you who know/knew her, what your fondest memory or memories of her are. Funny stories and what you remember her likes and dislikes to be (no matter what they are) and what word/words you would use to describe her.
In order to keep all of those thoughts in one place, please, please use this link only for this purpose only.
Thank-you
KEIYH
