Sedation break
Lauren got a quick sedation break this morning, so I was able to say "hi" and feel her squeeze my hand. She's getting better slowly but surely, though the c.diff is still present and she's still on the vent. We still have a long way to go...

Lauren's not doing well
Hi all,
Lauren has been in the ICU for a week now, and this morning her blood CO2 levels were so bad that she had to be intubated. It's definitely helping, but of course such a drastic step is evidence that she's not doing well.
She's also got c.diff, and (though the UCSD center has accepted her) she's not yet on the transplant list because there are too many other things going on right now.
Please keep her/us in your prayers.
