Dear Sally,
Please excuse my scribbling. Sorry I haven't written but I was critically ill in Toledo Hospital for one month. I don't remember a lot. I was in intensive care 19 days. I had a temp of 84 and a pulse of 30 and in a coma when Bob finally got me to the hospital. I had hypothermia and they gave me no chance to live. My parents have really been devoted. Five days after I got here I turned even worse. I aspirated and got bad pneumonia. Then they had to put a tube in me to breathe and put me on a respirator. Oh, Sally, when I came to I was sure I was dying. I remember my mom 1st then my dad. I do remember them. In the meantime I saw Sandy and couldn't remember that she came from VA in October with me. I was sure I was dying. Only I really was struggling with life. My mom said they gave no hope. The pneumonia was resistive to the antibiotics and finally they found one and I broke out in severe rash. She said I was a mess. I don't remember. Then I had bad diarrhea and had stomach tube, rectal tube, breathing tube, Foley urine catheter. I had 3 IV's swag catheter into the heart, arterial blood lines and subclavian catheter. I have lost a lot of weight and am now gaining fast. I guess I had a really bad cough before I came in and fell, etc. only Bob let me go. I was in a coma when he finally called an ambulance. I blame him. He has used me as a nurse maid, my money, transportation, etc. He has used me. Sandy is in St. Vincents hospital and has been 4 weeks. Bob put her in when I was in the hospital. She took extra thyroid plus her anorexia is bad.
