Emergency LOA

[Tatmtt2120]

My wife Mindy, aka. -=wDoW=- Tatsluv is in the hospital. She is having either a sever asthma attack or an allergic reaction. Pretty much she can't breath and is in a ton of pain because her chest has completely tighten up and closed up. The doctors aren't sure whats causing it or how to stop it. I will keep everyone posted.

Thanks everyone. So far there hasn't been much change. I got here about 11pm last night and didn't get to see her till today. She is still having a hard time breathing and its painful. When they give her morphine it helps with the pain but not with the constant pressure on her chest. They are continuing breathing treatments and anti-inflammatory medicine. Hopefully over the next day or two she will start to feel better. I will keep everyone posted.

Sorry to hear of your wifes' condition. Heres hoping she recovers safely and quickly. I am praying for her. Stay strong Jim, keep the faith.

Well I just got back from the hospital and there hasn't been much change at all. She is still having breathing problems that they can't get under control. The only thing they can control is the pain but that is only for a short period of time. They did a few more tests but not all the results have came back. One of her big problems is she is scared and worried that it won't get better. She feels as if her lungs are going to give out at any moment. I try to calm her down but it doesn't seem to be working. Thanks again for the prayers, just in case you guys wanted to know what hosiptal she at I will list it below. Also I will include a phone number that goes directly to her hospital bed. I will be there all day tomorrow between 10am-8pm PST. I am in the pacific time zone.

Talked to Tim last night.

While things haven't gotten any worse they haven't gotten any better. Her new doctors have determined that her condition bears closer monitoring than they were doing and have moved her to a Critical Care Unit.

Hope to hear from Tim tonight.

The numbers above are not valid at this time

Keeps the prayers going guys

Here is another update. She is now in ICU (Intensive Care Unit). She is getting worse and they aren't sure what is causing it. Now both her lungs are showing a partial collapse on the bottom portions and she has also developed pneumonia in both her lungs. They seem to have gotten her breathing under control when she is lying down but as soon as they sit her up her breathing gets out of control and the oxygen level in her blood drop radically. The doctors are trying to figure out why the oxygen levels on her blood are so low even though they are giving her as much oxygen as they can without putting her to sleep and putting tube down her throat. They have now brought in a infectious disease doctor to start taking a look at her. They seem to be convinced that the asthma was just a small part of it and they are looking for a infection or a disease that has come on. Tomorrow they are going to do a bronchoscopy to take a look into her lungs. Hopefully this will reveal what's going on. I will continue to keep everyone updated. Sorry I for got to add the phone numbers.
