First, a Megan update.
megbe (my sister) is the one who has been having troubles. However, a spot of light! She had a doctor's appointment today. They have decided to put a filter in her heart. It's a temporary measure to stop any blood clots that her body may throw so that she can go off of the coumadin for a time. She needs to go off the coumadin so that she can have the surgery that will (hopefully) help her heal her pressure sores. Originally, they were going to post-pone the surgery for another week. However, one of her many doctors thinks that they can do both the surgeries in the same day. She has another appointment tomorrow to solidify things, but if all goes as planned, she'll have both of them next Monday. The heart filter should only take a few moments. The other one will be more of a problem. Then
megbe will spend at least a week in the hospital. Following that she'll spend another week in a care facility (yup, think nursing home). After that, it'll be another two to three weeks at home laying down only. Not even sitting up to eat. That should help things greatly. We'll see.
To close out, I need this shirt in my life. Now.
Oh, and Transformers is soon! Whee!
