oh gods. HUGS to you both and definitely lighting a candle for her.
please send well wishes from me, I'm not religious at all but I will absolutely be keeping her in my thoughts
Fuck. My thoughts are definitely with her. And with her family and the rest of her friends.
do you have any idea what happened to her?
Halfbloodly: i have some details from her mom, but I’m not sure what she’d want shared? I can say she’s currently stable, intubated and in ICU.
So I keep telling myself.
oh my god, I hope she recovers quickly
I can’t wait to yell at her for playing ER chicken with me and winning.
.
My gosh, thank you for letting us know ❤️ I hope she recovers quickly and give my best to her family, please. All my love to you.
thank you for letting us know. she’s in my thoughts, and I hope she pulls through.
Her mom says the next 24-48 hrs are critical for her, her heart is very tired. Pls keep her in your thoughts.
Thank you for keeping us up to date. I just hope she's okay
thanks for letting us know. pretty much all i've been thinking about. i keep sending her little messages on disco >.> stay strong yourself and be gentle with you too
Update Sat afternoon: Just spoke to her sis. She is awake, and there are positive signs that she has retained cognitive ability, seems to recognize family and what's going on. Even made a joke, because she is always a smartass.
Her blood pressure is up, but still worryingly low, and organ failure is still a very big concern. Please keep praying/vibing/etc.
Thank you for keeping us updated
She definitely has us wishing her all the best. And yes, thank you.
Thank you for keeping us updated, my thoughts are with her
oh fuck, she's in my prayers.
Thank you for the updates, thank god she's awake.
They started Dena on dialysis yesterday. She’s doing tiny bits better day by day, just not quite enough to stop being terrified every time the phone rings.
She’s still intubated, still in icu, bp is finally holding steadyish. They’re using a feeding tube on her for right now. God I just fucking miss talking to her.
i'm sorry hun. this is tough.
Just heard from her mom for today, her bp meds and oxygen have been reduced which means her heart and lung function are improving. 2nd round of dialysis today. And they did an eeg to see if there’s been any seizure activity. If things continue to improve they may be able to take her breathing tube out
oh geez. thank you for the updates. thinking about her constantly
My god. Thank you kym, I had been hoping for news
EXCELLENT FUCKING NEWS !!!!!!!
oh damn, so glad to hear that
Oh my god finally!!! Thank you so much for passing that on
I am waiting to hear, but Dena MIGHT be moved out of the ICU soon!! Fingers crossed!
Fingers crossed. So glad to hear.
Oh man. Here's hoping. So much love to her. And you! And all of us who are hoping for the best.
I GOT TO TALK TO HER. Very briefly, but I GOT TO TALK TO HER on the phone and she IS out of ICU, she's in the step-down, she got to stand up very briefly today, Sorry Im a crying mess still but YAY
Oh wow, that's amazing to hear and I'm so glad you got to talk to her.
And now you have me crying a bit, but GOOD tears.
Oh thank god!! This is such good news. How is she feeling?
She said sore still and tired, she’s one big massive bruise, essentially. She sounded shaky but good!
i'm so glad
!!
this is all just the best news I've had today. maybe all seek.
Dena has been moved again, out of step down, into more normal(?) care. She was having some isssues and not sleeping, but they finally gave her something yesterday and she was able to get some sleep and doing better today.
good, i'm so glad. thank you for the updates. <333
thank you for every update. Hearing that is so great.
This is so wonderful thank you so much.
Dena is continuing to improve, little by little every day. Yesterday she got to sit up for a little bit and walk with a walker. I even got a text from her very early this am!!! She has a long recovery road ahead of her but she’s making leaps and bounds according to the doctors!!!
im so going to cry at work over you getting a text.
so glad to hear this and read these updates
That's amazing!! Thank you so much
Just got off the phone with Dena. She is and sounds MUCH better. She has been doing sitting and walking more, back on solid foods, and they are talking about transferring her to a rehab facility soonish, which she will probably be In for a couple weeks.
That is so good to hear. So glad you got to talk to her.
yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
There was some BS with the rehab transfer and her dialysis center, so it got delayed a bit, but talked to Dena today and hopefully they'll be moving her tomorrow, fingers crossed. She's doing well otherwise, although she's still having focus and grip issues, which is why she's not really online at all. She is still improving rapidly though!
Still good news! Thank you so much please the next time you're talking to her will you give her my best wishes? Thinking about her all the time.
I will! I made sure to tell her on my bday about how Im keeping you all updated and how you're all thinking of her!
And thank you again for keeping us updated! I'm so glad she's making progress.
ugh on bs but glad to here how things are going. thanks for keeping us updated. also hope youre doing okay after your health issues
Dena got moved into her rehab place yesterday evening, sister says it is a nice place and she got a private room and is excited about that. Also I spent yesterday in the ER for three hours because I was coughing up blood. Ive already told Dena to NOT TAKE THE NEXT TURN.
.... when i said hope youre doing okay i didnt mean not to be!
mythotica: I didn’t do it on purpose! (Am ok, just my blood thinners being dramatic)
glad to hear dena's settling in for recovery. thank you for updates... but take care of you!
Love to you both Take care of yourself, too.
My god you both need to be wrapped up in bubble wrap or something
I'm so glad Dena is doing better
They didn't t need to keep you in hospital did they?
Halfbloodly: no they were remarkably unconcerned, apparently my lingering Covid cough irritated my throat lining and since I’m in blood thinners, I bleed very easy and profusely. Just had it happen again. This time I decided I wouldn’t call 911 unless it lasted longer than 10 mins. It didn’t.
It’s still fucking terrifying though.
I'll bet
I'm so sorry you're going through it like this
If you haven't seen it, Dena has come online and posted an update
here !!
