Not a good report

Yesterday Donna was sick to her stomach, feeling pretty awful, couldn't eat, lots of back pain. During the night she was taken back to the Emergency Room for evaluation as her blood pressure remained very low. She has another kidney infection and her liver is not functioning correctly. After the CAT Scan and many tests, they found she had fluid surrounding her heart, a large amount of fluid. She was rushed in to emergency surgery and they drained the fluid successfully, she is now back in her room, in CVICU. (Cardio Vascular Intensive Care Unit). The concern is that the fluid is infected. We are waiting now to see her, she is back on the respirator, so not sure that she will be awake when we get to see her.
Please say more prayers and we will update you as we can.
