Elena Update from her Mom
April 24, 2008 by chaiwalli
Wow, people must be praying! Elena has been running fevers all week, so they were going to admit her this week instead. This morning the doctor called to say that the hospital ward is overcrowded, so they may not admit Elena at all now. Instead, they are thinking they will put her on really strong oral antibiotics for 21 days, and play it by ear. Monday, we have to go in as planned, ready to be admitted if there is room on the ward, but sent home if it is crowded. If that happens, then they will bring her in every two weeks for a while to check her PFTs (pulmonary function test). Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that Elena may not be admitted afterall now (yay!). I will get back to you after Monday’s visit. Thanks for your prayers and support. With love, Amelia
Hi everyone,
Thanks so much for praying for Elena. She did end up getting admitted, but all is well. We found out yesterday that her liver enzymes have been normal for a while now, so they are taking her off the liver medicine to see how it goes (praise the Lord, praise the Lord!!!).
We don’t know how long she’ll have to be here, but will let you know when she is out.
Blessings and love to all,
Amelia
Hi there,
I just wanted to let everyone know that Elena is out of the hospital now. She had some great improvement pulmonary-wise, and she also gained 3 kilos. She feels much better. Thanks so much for your prayers. We couldn’t have done it without all of the support we received.
With love and gratefulness,
Horace and Amelia Avila
