Mama Jane Update
Grammy made it down to Grand Junction yesterday and is currently in the ICU. Her ventilator came out this morning and she is breathing fine on her own, although they are giving her a heavy dose of oxygen. They will continue to wean her off of that. We think we have a diagnosis, which is better than we were expecting. They don't think she's had a heart attack at this point, but beleive she may have a syndrom seen in some asthma sufferers that causes the heart to enlarge and become irregularly shaped. If all continues to go well, they will do an angio-gram on Thursday to get inside and really check it out, and hopefully get more blood pumping through her heart. So that's where we are. Thanks for all your prayers!!!
