As for me....well, I am doing pretty good. My sister was in the hospital (admitted 12/12/16) for cirrhosis and vomiting blood. She experienced encephalopathy from the overburden of protein (from the bleeding) which made her ammonia levels skyrocket leading to encephalopathy which is a brain malfunction. (I know that you know what this is Zoe but I'm not sure Ruby does). Anyway, she went into a coma for about 3 weeks and finally came out of the coma...brain intact (believe it or not). She is presently at home on hospice care because her liver is shot. I am hoping she will be able to get on a liver transplant list but I'm not sure that will happen. So, Christmas into New Year I have been by her bedside 24/7 which was pretty exhausting but at least she had a private duty nurse that loves her by her side LOL. I have faith she will recover but it's kind of iffy right now.
It was good to hear from you gals. Sorry I unloaded all my troubles when I know you have your own to contend with. Just felt good to vent. Hope you don't mind.
I will continue my prayers.....love you guys!
Hugs,
Roseanne
