Dianna continues to improve! :-)
She is getting much stronger each day.
Dianna is still on the ventilator, but at a very low rate...
so we hope that she will be able to have it removed soon.
Dianna does have "Shingles"-- on one leg. :-(
(It has not spread-- so the doctors hope that the medication that was started is working.)
Now the doctors are waiting to preform the surgery to insert a new dialysis access till the Shingles begin to heal.
Dianna is down to having dialysis- Monday, Wednesday, Friday & Saturday.
The doctors have stopped the fluid removal on Tuesday & Thursday.
(because of the reduction of IV medications)
Today-- Dianna is OFF all IV drips! :-)
She is only receiving two medications by IV.
Dianna is still receiving her food and few medications through the feeding tube in her nose.

How wonderful that Dianna is doing much better. We have been praying, Nanette :-)
We will still be praying. Praying those shingles go as well because they can be very sore.
