Just an update

Hi everyone,
I'm still here in the hospital. I was moved back to the ICU I think on Friday and I am in acute chf due to what they think is an infection which has left my heart enlarged which is pressing on my lungs which is causing the build up of fluid. They have a biopsy of my lung(s) scheduled for Monday and hopefully they will know more then. As of tonight they are now telling me that there is some fluid aroud my heart and they might have to put a needle in to take off the fluid (sorry I didn't tell you sooner Tammy). I'm really frustrated and upset and angry.

Taryn,
I know its hard right now. I know you are angry and frustrated and just mad you are still in the hospital.
Try to focus on the positive things that are happening. Frank is right you have serious obstacles that you are facing right now and being upset isn't going to help you at all. I know I keep telling you to keep your chin up but you have no choice in the matter to fight this battle out and rest, rest, rest. Even if you are mad and angry.
I know that you are scared and sometimes we just know too much info but you will get through this just like you have everything else. Stay positive and know that you have friends on here that love you and are praying for you.

Love ya lady,
Tammy

That is the last thing you need to be while dealing with a very serious condition. You may have good reason to be upset, but right now staying alive would seem to be more important.

Sorry things are so rough for you, and I don't want to add to it, but .....

best wishes,

frank

Still thinking of you, Taryn, and wishing you well very soon. What a ta ta this is being, but do as you're told and listen to your doctors and you'll weather it all and come through to the right side again. Much love and many good wishes. Sheila
