    Thanks 3jays and Barb. It's good to hear that Marybe is doing better. I'm on tenter hooks every time I open this thread in case the new was not good. I can now breathe a little easier. Hoping her improvement continues and she regains strength.



    Love, hugs n prayers. Chrissy

    Oh Marybe must feel the love and prayers from this group!! Thank you for the updates and more thoughts, prayers and love are headed her way.

    It's normal to be tired/wiped out from CHF. Being tired is usually a sign of heart trouble. Marybe will get through this. So glad to hear about the improvement.

    Glad to hear about the kidneys working again. 1 less thing to worry about. We all know how fiesty Marybe is-she is going to get thru this I just know.

    Thanks for the update-I keep coming in to check and see what the latest is

    BarbaraA and 3Jays - thanks for the updates - I was especially happy to hear the kidney function is back.

    Barbara - if I were you I'd go up there I think it would boost her spirits although she might be tempted to break into the hospital kitchen and start baking cookies for you!

    So glad to hear there is some improvement, no matter if they are small steps as long as they all lead to improving health and stamina.  Prayers and positive energies still coming your way Marybe.

    Hugs, Jackie

    Just a quick note - I think it's awesome that the Moderators are posting in this thread, adding their good vibes to everyone else's on Marybe's behalf. Says a lot about BCO :)

    sure we'll be hearing from her personally, soon. the compouter won't make a connection in the hospital...

      once again, i'm reminded at how "tight" a group we are, and how lucky i am to have you all here.. thanx from both of us for the prayers...3jayshi guys: i also think it is awesome that the moderators a re standing with us all..

      I just got off the phone with Marybe, and Tim was there.. the dr had just left.. the cardio. he doesn't feel that she has CHF at all.. the last cardio wasn't too sure, but thought so.. this specialist said theywere worrying about her heart, when they shouldv'e been worrying more about her kidneys..

     this morning, her creatinine is even lower, so its looking real good for her..she's still wiped out, and she really does NOT want any of us to go visit her.. she was saying that over and over, because i wanted to try the other day, when i last talked with her..

      she wants to be in good health for a visit, and i think the crisis may very well be getting stable..I know if we go, she'll "push" herself again, and that isn't what she needs.. im going to hold off, but Barbara, i'm not sure what she'll do..

      they're fitting her for compression socks , today, and i know they wouldn't be trying to move the fluid if there was a big risk it would go to her heart, again.. a us will be done soon, to check for fluid..

      so, i felt a lot better today, after talking to her. Tim made the same promise to me to call, and answer my calls.. she actually tried to yell at him, and ended up coughing.. that's just what she needs now..

      i feel much better, and will continue to call once, twice a day, esp since i know to call in early, miss her hyper vigalant friend, and before she's had her "walks".. im

     3jays thanks so much for the updates. I'm sorry but it cracked me up just picturing Marybe trying yelling at her DH. Nothing will keep this strong woman down. Love you Marybe

    lago, I was thinking the same thing!!! talk about spirit, huh?

    Marybe...I'm holding you personally responsible for making me add another thread to those I follow on the Boards!

    3jays, you are just the best. I keep saying I'm gonna give you a call, and then something comes up. Please know that I think of you, and pray for you, much more than my lack of phone calls would imply :)

    marlegal I too had to add this thread although I'm trying to reduce the number too Tongue out

    Can't wait till Marybe comes and posts here! Still can't get her to use more paragraph breaks.

    I talked to Melissa this afternoon about Marybe, but I see I have nothing new to add other than to quote Mel: "She is still serious - coming along, but slowly." love and hugs to Marybe
