Hi,
This is Donna. I'm just laying around waiting to go to surgery. I'd say, we are going to "get er done" today. We are on our way!
Darlene says-
I'm sitting here next to Donna (with Louie) helping to entertain her until this morning's surgery. She is having "scheduled" surgery to repair a lymph node this morning and the expectation is that this will fix things up. She is almost through with the antibiotics and getting closer and closer to coming home. After this surgery, she will return to ICU for a day or two, then on to step-down and next HOME ! This surgery should take care of the fluid that has continued to build up in the heart and lungs. It's fairly simply and should only take about 30-45 minutes. We'll let you know more later.

Dear Donna and Louie,
ReplyDeleteI haven't posted before, but I have been following your progress closely. I do believe in miracles, haveing been part of one similar to yours, this past year. NEVER give up, NEVER assume anything! Your courage and strength are a testament to who you are. I wake up each day and the first thing I do is check this page (thank you Darlene). It gives me hope and strength and puts life in perspective like nothing else can. My thoughts and prayers are with you each day..............my love to you both.

Donna and family--The Lovejoys are all praying for you. I know it's tough what you're going through, but it's nice to see the pictures on here where you're wearing the same ol' smile that you've always had.
