Hi all, Kim's been transferred from Deborah to UPen's CHF/Cardiac Transplant clinic. Things are looking up. She's back mentally, but check the last 2days worth of entries @ my blog for more info
Well, It's been a while since I posted an update... I've done some updates on a person 2 person basis, or to small groups in the GabyZone chat-room, but it's time to get everyon caught up...
Kim left Deborah Heart and lung center, 2 or 3 weeks ago now.... I'm not sure exact dates because my schedule is all turned around...
They did the Cardiac Catherization yesterday afternoon. Results are that they WILL be doing the valve translplant and that there WILL be 2 bypasses done while they are in there.
Will be offline for a few days. Our provider is having yet another set of circuit issues and as a result we are MOVING everything to a new provider. Please bear with us durring this outtage.
Here are the facts as I know them at time of this posting:
The Cardiac Catheriation (to be done late morning or early afternoon on Febuary 25, 2008) is not to see if the valve replacement is needed. It is to see if they need to do a bypass while they are in there doing the valve replacement.
FYI, KimEM is in the hospital again. She was admitted during a device checkup as she was and is showing signs of CHF which is a complication of her Hear attack years back.
With luck she will be home in a couple days feeling a lot better, and not carrying around so much water.
Checks can be made out & sent to:
