Hope everything gets fixed like it should be, throwing up blood is not good. Sending you good thoughts.

No news is good news at this point. She is still in icu. But I am hopeful and as for me....I am nervous for the day to begin. I have a med check/adjustment with the doc today and they are testing her brain waves to see how things are there...So Prayers please continue flooding my way...we need them desperately right now. Thank you all.

My dad has been in ICU before due to seizures. It was caused by his diabetic neuropothy. He had to be on seizure meds for a while but now is off of them. He is always a bit shakey. He also was in ICU with a major heart attack just last year. So, even when in ICU there is still hope.

I am keeping you and your family in my thoughts. Keep us posted.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your uncle. To help your aunt, remember that you have to be the best you can be under the circumstances. When my father was ill, I found it was nice to think about the many many great times we'd had together. It often did make me cry, but still I felt blessed that those memories would be there, regardless of his recovery. If you can visit with her, sharing those memories with your aunt might really help her too and give her the positive energy to fight her way toward getting better.

Best wishes - try to sleep!
