Dear Ones,
Our hearts are a bit raw, but all of yours are working. Our daughter, Nicole, has been diagnosed with a D.V.T., deep vein thrumbosis. No idea how this occured, but they are treating her with a high powered blood thinner they are calling a "clot buster", I believe it is Heprin. The C.T. on her head came back clear. So...it appears at this point, all she is dealing with is this clot in her leg and the thrumbosis in her lungs. The Dr's said part of this clot broke off and exploded into her lungs, we are just so grateful it did not go to her brain or her heart. They are keeping her in ICU until they are sure the clot is being assimilated into her system. Her Dr. told us tonight that we are not out of the woods yet, but that he feels much better about her prognosis.
Words are not sufficient to say thank you, but, thank you.
You all continue to be in our thoughts and prayers,
We are off to bed, exhausted.
Vern
