Update

I am so sorry, but I have not had contact with a computer since Friday. My lovely nurse gave my mom permission to use her computer while she sits here with me in the back. Thanks Mrs. Jackie!!!

I am currently holding my own. My heart is improving everyday, and the heart doctors are really impressed. They removed the pace maker today, not the leads, just the box, and I have been doing the work for myself for the last three days.

My stroke occurred in the right side of my brain, and it was basically due to the fact that my carotid artery was severed and brain tissue on the right side was not getting enough blood. All of a sudden, due to a move or not quite sure, the blood came rushing in and the weakened arteries in the right side burst. Thank God that there was a bolt in my head that showed the spiked pressure levels. They immediately took me to surgery and I am still holding my own.

Mom spoke with the doctors today and this is what she knows. I am being bombarded with LOTS of medication for the stroke. I am not on as many meds for my heart as I am for my brain. I have brain activity, because I am able to regulate my own temperature and I am responsive to light in my eyes. I do have some swelling occurring in the brain but the doctors are trying to maintain the pressures in my brain with medication.

Please continue to pray for me and my family. We hold true to the word that God is our salvation and the core of our power and our light. God will not foresaken his children.

Hugs and Kisses.
