Thank God for miracles! Looks like she will be going home today hopefully by around lunchtime. Only issue now is she has a little fluid on her lungs but breathing fine. The put her on some lasix for a couple days to help with that. She just needs to get up and move since she’s been in a hospital bed since 6:00 pm Monday. Follow up with her cardiologist in 2 weeks if she doesn’t have any issues.
She’s home and trying to rest. Still has some fluid on her lungs and a little hard to breathe laying down. Hopefully once she gets some rest and all the meds get out of her system she will perk up.
A wedge pillow has helped me a lot with the pneumonia I have been dealing with post covid. Glad she is home too much risk of picking something else up staying in the hospital long term.
Pam is home and doing okay with her heart and lungs. Seems that some medication is causing insomnia and is driving her crazy. Did not sleep at all last night and can hardly hold her head up today but still can’t sleep. Got a call into her cardiologist to try and figure out what is causing it.
Cardiologist got back with us and one of the heart meds the hospital prescribed is known to cause insomnia. It was a twice a day med and since she started on it in the hospital on Wednesday hasn’t really slept. Thankfully her cardiologist looked into it and changed to a different medication that doesn’t have the side effect and does the same thing for the heart. Praying she sleeps tonight and can start healing physically and mentally. I’m planning on going to work tomorrow for the first time since this started as long as she is okay in the morning and gets some rest. Thanks again for the continued prayers.
It's with great sadness I update this thread with the tragic news that Pam passed away in her sleep last night. Please take a minute to pray for our good friend Shane and for Pam's children and grand children in this time of loss.
