It started Tuesday, Wednesday back in hospital, today back in ICU. Did covid attack her weak heart, was it lack of meds, or was it a coincidence that her heart is functioning at 10% and filling her with fluid? The cardio doc said to her "do you realize your prognosis is very poor?". Kidneys can't survive the meds needed to move that fluid, heart can't survive struggling to remove it. Nursing facilities will not accept her at discharge as she tests positive (you can for 90 days), even though not contagious. No where to go.
I stitched this during the first crisis.
Emma Rone from MommalovesyouGB.
PTP Vellum 40 count with dmc charted colors except for Ecru changed to 648. Size of 6" wide x 3.5".
I can finish with the top closure,
or fold in a flap style pouch with a ribbon to secure.
I take small PS halloween projects with me to the hospital, can't see over the masks. Hard to concentrate anyway with nauseous anxiety. Nothing started, just carried daily.
I have not been online much, hope everyone is fine.
That's all.
Be well.

Oh,Marly, I’m so very sorry to see this. Carole is certainly in my prayers as are you and your family. Take care….Cherie in WI
Marly, I am so sorry that this is happening. Have you thought about palliative care/hospice? It is very hard to make this decision after you have all fought so hard. Ask to speak with a social worker, I don't know what is available in your area. It would be ideal to get her into a hospice center. Be aware that taking her home for hospice can be a lot on the family if not enough support. At home hospice the family does the care. They may be able to do hospice in hospital too, probably not in ICU since hospice focuses on comfort care. Jen
Sorry is not enough to say. Praying for Carole to get the strength and care that she needs to pull through this. Am glad you are stitching the PS ornaments. Thinking of both of you and keeping you both in my prayers.
I am so sorry Marly. Sending all the healing juju Carole's way. Please take care of you as well.
Dear Marly, I am thinking about and praying for you, your sister and family.
I am horrified at this. In fact, I'm angry. Prayers, Marly...
I'm so sorry about Carole's situation. If she can't get into a nursing home, I too suggest the home palliative/hospice care route. It's not an easy decision, or to carry out, if done by family, so I hope there'd be workers available to help out.
Your little sampler is sweet. Better to take the PS littles with you and not work on them than to not have them and wish you did.
Marley, I am so very sorry. Sending you and Carole love.
Keeping you all in my heart. I too recommend hospice/palliative care. We just used the home hospice care with my mother and they were a god-send.
I am so sorry Marly. I am keeping you all in my prayers.
It's horrifying that this country allows loved ones to be treated this way. I'm not religious, but I am thinking of you and sending hope. I'm sorry that doesn't actually help your awful situation.
