<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am in OKC this weekend and just talked to
Vicki's dad and wanted to send out what I know as of today...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Today is not as good as yesterday...still having
some real difficulty breathing...they have scheduled another chest x-ray for
later this evening to check the fluid in and around her lungs. She
can only do the breathing treatments 4 times a day and it does help
her for a short while The P.I.C. line that they put in the other
day came out yesterday when a nurse was trying to use it...they decided not to
reinsert but did have to put in a new IV today in her arm to administer some
meds. They were able to remove the cathader which is very good news
because her output is good. I know I told you yesterday they were not
going to do the biopsy by they have ordered a kidney biopsy for Monday.
The infectious disease doctor says that all tests are coming back incluclisve
and he feels that this will help him determine what is going on. They did
the blood transfusion and gave some platelets yesterday to help some of those
levels as they must be up in order to do the biopsy.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>

each and everyday and I just ask for you to continue to do so...you
all have really come through and shown her just how loved she is by so many and
it has helped to lift her spirits!!!! She told Bill today that she is just
so tired...we CAN NOT let her get down as she needs to continue to
fight!!!!!</FONT></DIV>
