JennW in SoCal Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Awwww, sweetie! For every post on here there are probably dozens more people thinking of you and sending a quick prayer for you, your dh and your son. I've a friend who had a liver transplant 2 or 3 years ago now, and she is doing terrific. Those transplant teams are the best of the best and your dh is in the best mortal hands possible. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creekland Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Thanks for the update, Cat! And glad to hear it's mostly good. Definitely sending prayers for all on the docket today and for healing. I've also been wondering if you have enough help there... for things like your house, any pets, and all the usual day to day stuff. Are there friends/family for support? This is a time to let them feel useful. ;) And if not, there are Hive members everywhere. I feel fairly certain most of us wouldn't mind feeling useful too. :coolgleamA: Just some thoughts... Most of all, REALLY glad to wake up this morning and see your update. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlett Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Cat I felt so relieved to read your update this morning. Please remember to stay hydrated and eat at least a little protein and fruit. And sleep! You must get some sleep as soon as possible. I hope you have some support there with you at the hospital. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktgrok Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Oh, I'm so relieved! Praying for a better day today. But know that if they say they can fix it, they mean it. Try to get some rest...go to a hotel down the street with your son if you need to. Or at 15 I bet he could stay by himself for a few hours to get some sleep if you won't. But mostly, just tears of joy that you are okay, and will keep praying for you, your husband, your family, and the medical team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catherine Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 We are all pulling for him, Catwoman. I'm also someone whose spent more time than I'd like in ICUs and I know "the agony and the ecstasy" rollercoaster of emotions when one has a critically ill loved one. Just do what you need to do to survive. Sooner than you realize it will end and life will be more stable but it seems endless now I am sure. Much love to all of you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Girl Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Having someone in ICU can be an absolute rollercoaster emotionally. We're all thinking of you and your family. It sounds as though the doctors are on top of this problem. Take one issue at time. Try to get some rest if you can, both of you. (So easy to say, I know.) Do you have another adult with you for moral support? Best wishes always. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
