Emily back in hospital
Just received word from my online support group that Emily is back in the hospital here is what they said was going on.
Hey guys
I got a call this morning from Emily, she is back in the hospital with atelectasis. George took her there, I think early this morning. She was running a temp, they are giving her breathing tx and antibiotics.
She is at St Francis in room 9114
PS this is wikipedia def of Atelectasis
Atelectasis is a collapse of lung tissue affecting part or all of one lung.[1] It is a condition where the alveoli are deflated, as distinct from pulmonary consolidation. Infant respiratory distress syndrome is another distinct type of atelectasis.

Thanks for the update. I'm sure they can get her back and up soon. I'm glad she didn't mess around with symptoms thinking it was "normal". We all just have to remember to be pro-active when it comes to how we feel. Our doctors DO want to hear from us. That's the only way they can help us!!! I'll put Em our my prayer list and hopefully she'll be fine in a few days!!! Keep us updated as you hear. Thanks!!
