Popular Post Melissa in Australia Posted February 8, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2022 Update Some excellent news Potassium drip has done the trick . Her heart is functioning more normally, and her vitals have stabilised. my sister hasn’t had surgery yet, and nobody can tell her if it will happen today or tomorrow she is sick of jelly as that is the only thing all the hospitals have let her eat for the past 11 days. apart from not having the surgery yet, everything is looking up, looks like she is going to be fine now whereas 2 days ago we didn’t think she was going to make it. 67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fraidycat Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Such great news that they got all the other stuff looked after and they can now focus on getting her gallbladder surgery done. Perhaps they just have to wait a bit until whatever they gave her for clots clears her system? I imagine it was a blood thinner or anti-coagulant of some sort, and they'd want to be sure that is all gone before doing surgery. Continued healing light for her. And your whole family - for being on such an emotional rollercoaster these past few days. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Thank you for the update — things were looking so bleak, to the point where I was almost afraid to read your updates for fear something terrible might have happened, so I’m so happy to hear that she is doing so well now! Thank goodness they transferred her to this hospital. It sounds like she finally got the treatment she really needed. I hope the surgery will happen soon, and like @Kassia already said, I hope your sister can get some real food soon, too!!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissa in Australia Posted February 8, 2022 Author Share Posted February 8, 2022 Not good update her gall bladder probably burst during the night. She was in so much pain that they has to knock her out. She is now fully sedated. They are waiting for a critical care bed as they think she will need one after surgery as she has seizures when coming out of anaesthesia. The hospital has rung mum and told her she has special permission to visit her. Which has caused mum to go into a panic we don’t know where her children are. Mum is in a panic about that as well 53 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassia Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 @Melissa in AustraliaI am so very sorry! That is horrifying that they knew she needed the surgery and this could have been prevented. Your poor poor sister and family. I wish I knew what else to say - my heart just breaks for all of you. Hoping she can get the surgery very soon and be stabilized. 😞 Sending you hugs. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
