Okay guys.....

 

I truly believe that one day very soon I will be emailing with good news
but right now I am requesting all thoughts and prayers for Vicki.

 

I was with her last night when the infectious disease specialist came in
with the two kidney doctors...asked a lot of questions and examined her.
Brought us out into the hall and told us that he does not believe she
ever had the Epstein Barr Virus and does not have a urinary track
infection as they had also thought yesterday.  He said he does not know
what is wrong but will be consulting with others.  Does want to do the
kidney biopsy but she can not go through that right now until they get
some of this fluid off of her.

 

Her breathing is very labored and they did another x-ray to check for
fluid on lungs...even if that shows none she has so much in her that it
is causing a great deal of pressure.

 

They started some protein in her P.I.C. line to try to help with the
nausea since she has had nothing with substance for 3 weeks.  Stopped
the fluids until they get some out of her and started the lasix again
last night...if you remember, that did nothing last week when they tried
it.

 

Please also pray for Steve to have the strength and courage to do what
need to be done.  There are many of us BEGGING to get her out of here so
please just pray that something happens quickly!!!!!

 

You all have been so great to keep her spirits lifted...please please
don't stop now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
