Well today has been a day of some disappointment for us. Andrea was struggling with her blood pressure last night and this afternoon when seeing that she was passing blood again, they decided to scope her from her throat and found 2 ulcers that were bleeding, so they clipped them, not sure how that is done. She was in considerable pain from it so they gave her painkiller to knock the edge off, so now we hope she is sleeping for the night. They gave her 3 or 4 units of blood today plus some albumen, which is a blood product also. A possible cause for the bleeding is a little too much blood thinner which she needs for her pump. It is a fine balancing act they are doing, juggling her meds one way and another, and there is very little room for error. Hopefully tomorrow she can make some solid forward progress again. Please continue in prayer for her and us too.
Thanks, Maynard
