Default Sister doing well!

Update on my sister...God is so good

After Glenda went to the Physical therapy wing of her hometown hospital, she was doing awesome,gaining strength...they discovered she had a tiny bloodclot in her femoral arterie in left leg..so they also did an MRI on her lungs and saw that she had a few tiny clots there. Her breathing was doing great, she was down to 3 liters of oxygen from 6...but the concern they had was the clots traveling to her brain or heart. Dr.s decided to put her on a blood thinner, cuemiden?

It happened so fast! the medicine seems to be working;she is home,cooking,
light housekeeping...she just needs to be careful of being scratched because of bleeding.

So, from being on a ventalator for over 9 days...to home..its a miracle!

We all thank you so much for your prayers and lifting the family up.
God is so faithful.

Bless each of you,

Billie
