Boosting the signal a bit
It occurred to me that some of my friends over here aren't on Facebook - and might not know about what's going on with a fellow SCAdian, Auslander (MKA: Katie Morton). If you don't know Katie, she's a wonderfully sweet woman and was until recently, East Kingdom Chancellor Minor.
Aproximately two months ago, just over three weeks before her due date with her 2nd child, Katie began experiencing unexplained symptoms and her husband, Jeff, took her to the hospital where she was scheduled to give birth. She was monitored overnight, and in the morning, her doctors diagnosed her with advanced preeclampsia and an immediate Caesarean section with general anesthesia was performed. Following the delivery of their baby boy, however, she would not wake up and was transferred to the MICU of a major hospital. Here, she was quickly diagnosed with renal failure, liver failure, and heart failure. After nearly 7 weeks in a medically induced coma, and a series of miricals, Katie was finally stable enough to have been moved on 8/15 from ICU to a recoverly room.
The whole story, pictures, regular updates on her recovery and an opportunity to help the Morton family can all be found here:
