GOD TAKETH AWAY AND GIVETH!

Just as the reality of the cancer scare was over another thing is taking its place.

Ellen has been inactive for over 6 months lying in a jerry chair because of the hip replacement operation and Urinary Tract Infections that occurred continuously since then. She has lost her ability to stand and we thought it was the pain from her operation that prevented this.

After her latest operation, she has developed pneumonia and is struggling. She can’t or doesn’t understand she needs to cough up the mucus that has formed anis still forming in her lungs. She is still under great stress and pain so severe she is moaning and morphine has to be dispensed in heavy doses. It takes a while for the morphine that nurses say should work immediately to partially take effect. We, the hospital staff and parents, are not sure if the pain is from the operation or pneumonia. Ellen is incapable of talking so the pain is reaching her parents profoundly as we watch her agony. Her eyes search our faces begging us to do something that we do not understand.

So, once again she is on the ride of her life and as the doctor said, “She is in critical condition!”
