(You are kinda important to a lot of us, 'round here! ) x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187635 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 22:59:45 +0000 Anonymous 187635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianna, my thoughts are with you and your mother. It's not easy to go sit in a hospital day after day.<br /> A friend is recovering from septic shock after about 3 weeks in ICU, then a couple of months at a nursing home for rehab. He's in his early 60's and doesn't know what happened to cause it other than possibly a steroid injection for neck pain. He still has the neck pain and still isn't back to work full time. It seems to take a long time to recover. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187630 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 22:49:01 +0000 marianna 187630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Boof, thanks for sharing your story! My mom's septic shock resulted from untreated kidney stones! It is just amazing that something so common/an out-patient procedure could result in such a severe infection. Let this be a lesson to all of us: Don't let health problems linger. See a doctor!</p> <p>Thanks again everyone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187612 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 21:36:51 +0000 Mac 187612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thrilled she's on the mend: continued best wishes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187609 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 21:31:46 +0000 Beth 187609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianna, I'm so glad to see you're back! Thank goodness your mom's health is moving in the right direction. I'm keeping you both in my thoughts~ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187600 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 21:08:56 +0000 Boof 187600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianna, you got me to de-lurk! I'm so sorry to hear about your mother, but I'm glad she's improving. Two years ago my father-in-law had pneumonia that went untreated, which resulted in septic shock. He was a smoker, non-compliant diabetic, had heart disease...the list goes on. He is still with us today! I can't remember exactly how long, but he was on the vent for somewhere between 10-14 days. We were all ready to say our goodbyes, but the doctors put him on Xigris, which is supposed to halt the cascade of organ failure. It worked, but he improved very slowly. I know how excruciating it is to wait for improvement. I also know how awful it is to hang out in the ICU waiting room day after day. I'm keeping your family in my prayers and sending healthy vibes! I think her poor kidneys just need time...her body is dealing with so much! Sending you big hugs! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187586 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 20:38:15 +0000 Isabel 187586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I knew it was serious, but I had no idea how serious and the recovery she is facing. I am so sorry. I am very heartened to hear that she is improving and that most people survive this - she will be one of them.</p> <p>I had no idea how prevalent this is...wow, we take so much for granted every day.</p> <p>Please let us know when she feels up to cards or flowers. And if you can, please do keep us posted for as long as it takes. </p> <p>I love the idea that we will keep you entertained (per londonwiki ) - I am very bad at jokes and don't have much other talent, so that will have to fall to the other ladies. Please, please let us know if there is anything that will help you pass the time a little better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187537 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 19:44:42 +0000 Debbie 187537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just wanted you to know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.<br /> Take care of yourself too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187536 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 19:44:00 +0000 Scarlet 187536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was just reading an article about sepsis the other day and how frighteningly common it is.

It seems very, very long, but every case is different of course (and I think your Mum is also much younger, my father was 68 at the time). I know it's frustrating and very upsetting, but the ICU is the best place your Mum can be right now.</p> <p>I'll send you a pm with some more info. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187511 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 19:16:23 +0000 Carole 187511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I missed this until now.. So sorry you are going through this dificult time, Marianna. It's so hard to wait these things out, but how wonderful you can be there for her and see first hand the care she is receiving. Sending good thoughts and prayers for a full recovery! Keep us posted.</p> <p>Big Hug~ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/marianna-how-is-your-mom#post-187504 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 19:12:03 +0000 JennyK (NC) 187504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness.
