Evening, March 31

(e-mail from B. Parady)

Welcome back to the roller coaster.

After one really good day, we come back to spiking pneumonia fevers, and seizure when the fever spiked. The doctor let the fever go up to get a better culture of the nasty, but upset me by inducing the seizure. Medicine is sure a fun profession. Must be hard to be a doctor. Rough day for Shelly too, where Sabina spent the day sedated with propofol. Andre and Warren and Trish, some of the best were on duty, which made life much better than if things were going wild.

Sabina had to go back to 40% respiratorand respirator triggered breathing. The episode set back her vent weaning a few more days.

Hard to get through these down days after such wonderful days. I keep praying for some steady, even, level where Sabina can start building a recovery.
