TTC After a Loss

Can I ask for T&P?

I hardly ever ask for them, but I think I really need them right now.

My grandmother went into the hospital earlier this week. She had fluid in her lungs and it really put a strain on her very weak heart. She was sedated and on a ventilator.... but things were looking up. She had really good vitals and things were improving.

Today they went to take her off the ventilator, and she didn't do so hot. She ended up coding and they had to bring in the crash cart. Now they're doing an EKG to find out how much damage it did to her heart. Things do not look good.

 

They think she caught a virus, which contriubuted to the fluid in her lungs. The thing is... they think she caught the virus while she was down in her basement. She was only down in her basement because DH and I went over to clean it out and organize for her.

I'm very scared we're going to lose her. She survived lung cancer!! She can survive this, right?

    Because of the great "Snow"vember of 2015, my medicated cycle was cancelled.  However, we were blessed with our little rainbow baby due on 8/14/15!  Baby J had other plans and decided to make his grand ole entrance on 7/4/2015!

    Surprise!  Our little girl entered this world on 12/8/2016 after her eviction notice was long past due.  Our little turkey baby turned into a snow baby!

    And please, please don't blame yourself because she went to her basement because you were coming to organize it - they can't be sure where the virus is from. And even if it's the case, no one could have foreseen that. ((((HUGS))))
