Hospital visit

Much agreed, I have to be ever vigilant for signs of infections. I think her insurance ran out, she was running 4 infections at once. No more infections, her white blood cell count was 8,000 today (normal is 5 to 10,000) She topped out at 28,000[/QUOTE @Doublejack I think reefer saved her life, 9 days after the major surgery (laparotomy, 20 staples) she was toking up and coughing, her incision started to bleed, prompting me to call 911, she had a massive case of septicemia and a brain infection.

If the coughing fit did not cause her to bleed, that infection would of gone unchecked. She kissed the reaper.

Wow! Scary story but that's awesome it worked out the way it did.

Christ man.... Good on ya for staying the course. I had a relative with septic shock in ICU. Those $#@!ing $#@!s gave me the death speech and then pulled the costly life saving measures.

She really should do rehab, it works.

For those who want it to. Otherwise, it's easy to give them what they want until they let you out. My niece did court mandated rehab, and as soon as she got out, she went straight back to selling herself for drugs. Lost rights to even live with her first son because of it (my parents adopted him, so he's in a much better situation anyway). I think she may have finally turned things around, but I have no way of knowing for sure, being so far away.
