Kait's issues again--not good

Post by barbaranoela »

JUst got a phone call from Lynn----while I was chatting here---and Kait is back in the hospital---her head has swollen up and also her eyes--from the medtronics implant---this poor child just doesnt *heal*''
SO===they will remove all that was implanted -keep her for a few days and then send her home where she will have nursing care due to the vanco drip that she will be on---

The thought it is retry it again in 6 months--

Wanna know something folks----this isnt going to work cus her immune system is shot--but Lynn will keep trying and trying and I cant truely say that I see any *light at the end of the tunnel* for her

I'm so sorry to hear that the implant has caused Kait more grief. It seems like it never ends for her.

Barbara,

Thanks for the update. That's a bummer all right, and it's mighty frustrating, I agree - but still, I can't help but feel that if they keep trying, sooner or later, something is going to work right.

I'll never give up hope, and I'll bet that you won't either, in your heart.

Much luve,

Barbara:

My love and prayers are with all of you and I truly hope the doctor's truly find some way of helping Kait.

It's so hard to see her fight so hard and I know you want to jump in with both feet, hands and arms and do whatever you can to help. Knowing you , you would also trade places with Kait just so she could be well.

Love and God Bless:
Jodi

Morning Barbara,

I don't fault Lynn for trying anything and everything for Kait but I do agree that her immune system is playing a role in rejection and reactions for her. I, like Tex, will never give up hope and I really know you won't either. It would have been nice if you just had a day in AZ to relax when you got there.

She is in my prayers as well as you and Lou.

Love, Maggie
Maggie Scarpone

I hope and pray this will make Kait feel better now and that in six months it will work out for her. I'm so sorry she is having this problem.

Oh Barbara!!!
I'm so sorry. I agree though, that we can't give up hoping that somehow they will stumble onto what will help her.
