I said earlier that Adrienne has more shortness of breath. Turns out she now has pulmonary edema. They started her on lasix again after the kidney doc said ok since her creatinine is down now. Oh, she has a new infectious disease doc too. I've lost count of how many dogs there are now. She's definitely getting the star treatment.
Adrienne got the star treatment today. There's an amazing shower cap that washes your hair while you sit in bed. Curt and I also got a few of her favorite foods for the icu fridge. Yes, this means she's eating.

thank goodness things are looking better. I have been worried all day! Thanks for sending updates. I hope tomorrow brings an even better day for you!
I worried all day about Adrienne and didn't check the blog from work. Glad that today had some good things happen for Adrienne. Having her hair washed must have made her feel like a million bucks ; ) A new doc...with new ideas hopefully..and she's eating....that's a good sign! Carrie left you some info on the forum thread if you haven't seen it yet. So glad that the nurses are being thoughtful to you and that you can stay with Adrienne.
((HUGS)) and love to you all.

Adrienne - you are A-Mazing, what a fighter!
Last thing at night and first thing in the morning we check your blog...........Alison, we can't thank you enough for the regular updates.
Sending the biggest 'squishy girl hugs' we can muster.......love you girls.......<3........Vx
Adrienne definitely deserves to be treated like a star. I just wish it weren't because of this! That said, I'm glad she feels up to eating and having her hair washed - that always makes a person feel better. And, am glad so many docs are consulting. The more ideas, hopefully the better chance we have of getting your girl out of there and back home with the family!
Love to you,
Lisa

I'm so happy to hear that Adrienne is being well taken care of by the medical staff. She is also blessed to have such a wonderful, caring family at her side through it all. Here's hoping the lasix takes care of the edema really soon. Lots of love, Janet
This is good, right? She's eating! Please please Adrienne, keep improving!!! We are rooting for you!

One step at a time. Sitting up, getting a shampoo, and eating are three steps in the right direction.
Praying for the doctors' wisdom and also comfort for you family. I know it's a hard on everyone.
Alison, so glad to hear Adrienne is better and eating - good news!!
Hugs

Hey Ladies,
You're in my thoughts. Every, every day, always.
Here's to sitting up, food, and hopefully gossiping about boys... very, very soon ;)
Sending Love,

Alison and Adrienne, My prayers and thoughts are with you. I have never met two people more upbeat than you two. You give us all encouragement. Glad to hear you are eating. You go girl, keep up the good work!
