"We Love Andrea" was created to update Andrea's friends as she went through a difficult journey. After her second heart transplant when her pulse began to speed up she was given a pacemaker, then a Heart Mate II or LVAD. She was in the Stollery Children's Hospital, then the Mazankowski heart unit in Edmonton, Alberta for 7 months. However, she peacefully died on May 11, 2011 when the rest of her heart and other organs could handle the strain no longer. If you come to this blog, pray for her family and friends, remember to tell your friends you love them, then sign your organ donor card.

Just a Regular Day

Just returned from Andrea's room, and it's really cooled off again -22 C again.  Andrea had a fairly good day, her bout of nausea was first thing this morning, and the rest of the day it didn't bother too much.  We had her up in her wheelchair for an hour this morning, back in bed before 11Am for dialysis.  The Cutdown site which they repaired yesterday bothered her today abit, kind of pinching and sore but bearable.  She slept some after dialysis but tonight was more awake again.  She sometimes will add a comment when we are talking and it interests or concerns her.  Now we hope and pray that she will sleep well and be ready to have a good day tomorrow.  Goodnight.
 
Thanks, Maynard
