"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.

Nausea Again

Hello Everyone
 
Today was a so so kind of day for Andrea.  If it was not for the sudden, without warning bouts of nausea it would have been a good day.  She had had a few days without any bouts of upset stomach last week so today she was a little disappointed.  Fortunately the length of these nausea spells were not very long today.  We had her stand up into the wheelchair and attended chapel services, but soon after it was over she wanted back to bed.  Around 7 Pm we used the sling and put her into the wheelchair and were out of the room for awhile again.  No nap for her today so she was very tired and I am sure by 10 PM she will be asleep for the night.  Tomorrow is dialysis again, not sure at what time.  Rather than be repetitious, I will close, goodnight.
 
regards, Maynard
