Things are not going well at all. Mom has moved to SCU (Special Care Unit) here at Maine Medical because of breathing complications and temperature. They called in a rapid response team and she was moved to SCU. At 4 am on saturday they determined she had: multiple bilateral pulmonary embolisms. She had a procedure on saturday where they put a filter in one of her main arteries to her heart to stop blood clots from traveling up to her heart. At this time she is resting here at SCU and we will be here for about a week. She has limited visitation times were people go into see her for a few minutes and then back to the waiting room.
It is a day to day thing- each day brings more news. Hopefully, she will be able to go back to Gibson soon.
Will keep you all posted.
Love, Jess

ReplyDeleteBob and Jess,
ReplyDeleteI am hopeful that Rosemary pushes forward with the same perserverance she has used with her many adoring patients. Many well wishes come from them and from her PA work family. Sending positive healing thoughts and energy your way.
Take good care,
Marcia
Hi, None of you know me personally, however I am a good friend of Patty Drake's who told me to get in touch with you.
ReplyDeleteI am a cancer survivor and work with family and cancer victims through the Lance Armstrong Foundations LIVESTRONG program.
I wanted you to know that I am here for you if you need ANYTHING.
It sounds like Rose is a very strong woman and that she is fighting with all she has. We, the LIVESTRONG ARMY & myself are here for her and for you. Please contact me so I can get you in touch with an Army near you or if we cannot do that I will work with you myself. I am in Erie, PA but that is not a problem.
I am keeping you all in my prayers & hope to hear from you.
God Bless & LIVESTRONG,
