Kimber,

This is 's mom. She is back in the hospital again.She is running a

fever and her pancrease is acting up also. They also believe she has a staph

infection. When she gets home we could use your list of programs to get her

medicine. If you don't mind please send them. We gratefully appreciate it.

Thank you for your help and kindness.

Can you see your doctor to get a new prescription? Or go to

the ER to get one? There are programs out there for people

who cannot afford their medications. I've got a list of them

if you need it. Just let me know and I'll email it to you. I

just don't like to see any of us in pain and I wish I could

do more to help you.

Hi,

This is 's Mom. She is back in the hospital at Tuomey Hospital, room

375, .She still having trouble with her pancrease and stays

nausea, running a fever. She is really having a hard time. She is on

TPN,fluids, and antibotics. They think she has a staph infection but the new

blood culture done Saturday showed only yeast and no bacteria. They cannot

figure out where the fever is coming from. She is down but still a fighter.

Please pray for her. We will pray for Jackie and you too. Take care.

Thinking of you both,

Dory

's Mom

Re: Update on

Hey ,

I am so sorry you are doing so bad. I haven't had my computer for a

while and I am trying to catch up. Let me know if you need anything.

We may have to go to MUSC soon, Jackie is doing so bad...just seem to

down quick. She was nauseas really bad for a while now, but now the

pain has been really bad for a few days. I am going to pushing for a

ctscan...I think something is wrong. Short version is the oncall doc

told me yesterday that her ctscan in 2001 showed the pancreas

shrinking...don't sound good to me. Would have been nice if they

told me what that meant..I thought it meant inflammation going down

but seems it might be something bad. Anyways, I know you are feeling

bad so I will hush...but I have my computer fixed and I am here if ya

need me...just write to my regular email address cuz I am behind on

the posts and am trying to get caught up. I want to be able to talk

with you if you need me. How is your mom? I am sure she is worried

about you. Talk to ya soon,

's Mom,

I once was in the hospital on TPN with a central line.

I spiked a fever of 105 degrees. The blood culture

showed no bacteria, but it did show yeast in the

blood. This was even more dangerous. I had to be on

IV Diflucan to clear up the infection. I will keep

in my prayers, and please wish her better health

for me.

Hopefully this time you'll get beyond the two week point and it

will be a long, long time before you're at the hospital door again!

was kind enough to let us all know you were in the

hospital and you had a lot of people praying for your recovery.

It must be nice to be home again. Just take it easy on yourself

and don't overdo. Take care, and I hope you're feeling better

soon.

it's so good to hear from you. I was worried something like

this had happened since it had been so long since I had

heard from you. You have my prayers that things continue to

improve and that you don't have to go back anytime soon. I

know how that pneumonia is, knocks you off your feet really

quick. I had it in one lung last Dec., with a case of

pancreatitis. Was in for about two weeks, got out Christmas

Eve. Took me another 3 weeks before I was well enough to go

back to work.

You take it easy and let us know how your visit to

ton goes.

We have also used a reclinyer for cory who frequently has a rough

time with coughing at night. It did work great. Another idea we

used was a wedge, the kind they use for physical therapy. We would

slide it under his matress. You can purchase these wedges at

different angles. It served a dual purpose because when we use to do

BD we use this for the down positions. I myself have slept countless

night with Cory sleeping against me while I slept sitting up on the

couch because it was the only way he would sleep.

Dear ,

New meds sometimes take some adjustment, and I hope you

soon get used to them. I didn't know that you had now

developed diabetes, and that surely adds all kinds of new

challenges. It sounds like a trip, a nice long distance visit with

your brother in ND may be just the ticket to cheer you up.

But, , dear........do ya really want to go to ND in the middle

of the freeking, freezing, snowing, blowing winter? Brrrrrr! I

mean, girl, it's gonna be cold, cold, cold and are you sure your

thinned out southern blood can rise to the occasion?

Just teasing! Sometimes when we are feeling down and out

and frustrated with the day to day of handling this disease, a trip

away to visit loved ones can make a big difference.

Have a safe trip and a great visit. We'll be thinking of you.

With hope and prayers,

Hello everyone,I haven't talked much because I haven't been

feeling well and getting use to the new pain meds. I now have

diabetes but am able to control it with diet and excerise. I have

also decided to go to ND to visit with my brother and see my

niece and nephew.
