One step back....



Last night David spiked a fever, and I had to bring him back to Mass General Emergency Room. His stomach is still filled with fluid, and the doctors were concerned there may be some infection in his body. Blood tests have been done, and more are to come. Tomorrow his medical team may do an ultrasound exam, and perhaps remove more liquid from his stomach. We are hanging in there, expecting more answers and solutions.

  1. Dave and Monika, my husband, who was an acupuncturist for many years until recently going back to school for Physician Assistant, feels that daily visualization/meditation might be of help. I know you have been doing anything and everything to kick this, so please forgive me if this is something that you already know. Contact me through Facebook if you want to know more and I can put you in touch with him. My thoughts and prayers are with you always. Heather (Norrod) Smith CCHS '91

  4. Thinking of all you Prifties, and continuing to visualize on your behalf...

    (fever "spike" attacks infections, leaving them hole-y and drained... allowing for flowering, powdery and bright Health to reclaim its territory...)

    By the way, got that MFA you pumped me up for... thought of you in your superman suit during every rough crit. They had to wonder why I kept laughing! THANKS. Never would have/could have done it w/o you. For realz.

    xoxo, josie
