With such sadness I write that my mother, Margaret Louise Paulson has passed away in the early hours of September 19, 2013. She leaves behind so many loved ones and friends that knew her happiness, enthusiasm and love. Margaret will be very missed by so many.
I love you Mom,
Tutu
Trying to do my best to post on Margie's progress weekly, but I just can't keep up with all of her medical shenanigans!
So, hitting on the points:
-She's in between chemotherapy treatments, so her immune system, when returning home last week was bottomed out, opening her up to infection.
-Her week was going pretty well, but by Saturday not so well.
-To the ER on saturday and then admitted to hospital
-Once cultures all came back, determined that bronchial infection had moved into her lungs.
-Plenty of antibiotics prescribed by monday.
-Still in hospital as of this morning, likely will stay through next round of chemo.
-On oxygen now to assist with breathing, as her lungs are not happy about breathing like us mortals.
Deborah is there now, as are Michael and Robert- back and forth from the Island...
Will post again today as Deborah just reported that they "are working on getting the tube out"
all for now,
Kathleen
