DancingLight Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Hello all!Here's the latest:Just heard from Melissa a few miinutes ago. I have read almost all of your posts to her over vm and she really enjoys that! She sounded MUCH better today, which was a relief. Still, she will remain in ICU and will be in the hospital for AT LEAST another week.She gave me permission to post the address of the hospital for those of you who have asked me about sending cards (previously she had been too out of it for me to even ask her). I hope I have the right address (Maxine are you reading this? She said it was Toledo Hospital, and this is the address I found on google). Hope it's right! Since her last name is already visible on the site, as she is a moderator, I think it is okay to post it this way.Although she is in ICU, she is in the secondary ICU, so has her own roomy room and she CAN have flowers and such (which she loves). She loves mail too...so here's the address.Melissa MambortTOLEDO HOSPITAL2142 NORTH COVE BOULEVARDTOLEDO, OH 43606I'll continue to keep you posted as I am able and as I hear news. She was going to get a hair wash with one of those shower cap thingies today.They are monitoring her vitals closely, she's still having fevers, etc...Many thanks for all of your prayers and support!!!!!!I couldn't sleep at all last night I was soooo worried about her. It was a relief to hear her sound like 'melissa' on the phone today. She's still got a LONG road ahead though...Love, Em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyMouse Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 I'm so glad that she's in the step down ICU--way better than being in the really restrictive section. When my dad was in the ICU for his heart surgeries, he did have a room to himself, but it was like you mentioned--no flowers, and no fun. Melissa, we miss you. Take you time healing --do NOT rush yourself, and let your body do the healing.Nina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tessa Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 Thank you, Em for keeping us informed. I am glad I can do something. I am going to send a card tomorrow morning, I hope it gets there on time (as I send it from Spain and the Post Service is not very quick) Please, tell her it is going her way and that we keep her in our thoughts and prayers,Love,Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadine Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 I was just wondering if there was a more recent update? I haven't been able to follow all the posts, so I may have missed it. Emily- thanks for all the updates you have given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
