There’s been so much going on with us here recently, I don’t know if I posted about this or not, but she stayed 8 days this time and came out on a renal diet (which is basically nothing).

She had tried to work but couldn’t make it through a shift, so we took her back to the doctor who re-admitted her and started her on IV duiretics again.

So now she’s home and the difference this time is that she requires 4 times a week home nursing care and is wearing a tel-med monitor.

Her blood perssure is on the low side, which we found out yesterday when she took a tumble getting out of bed.

So that’s it as this point. To our friends who’ve been e-mailing: I am sorry not to have answered yet, but we both will as soon as we can.

To our friends here: It seems like everytime I post anymore it’s about our health, and I worry that the thinking is, “Oh shit! Not him again!”, so I wait till we get through the latest and then let you know. Don’t misunderstand me, okay? I DO love you guys, but neither of us wants to burden anyone else and that’s just the way we are.

Thanks

We’re just here for you guys sweetie. Don’t worry about anything. Use us as you see fit. Keep Dondra as comfortable as you can, let her know we’re all pulling for her and that if there’s anything we can do, don’t hesitate to let us know.

Love and hugs,

Kemi~

Hey darlin, glad to see you post here, been looking for word about sweet Dondra. I’ve tried to call both your phones but they seem to be turned off, with no voice mail to leave you a message. I called the hospital yesterday and they said she had been released.

So sorry she is still so ill and hope they have her back on trac this time to get as well as she can get.

Call me when you get a chance.

Love and hugs, Becks and Bill D ❤
