Don Wood Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 This post is very hard to write tonight but I owe you all an update. Thanks so very much for all the prayers and thoughts. It means a lot. After two days in the regular hospital, Lucie was moved Sunday night to ICU, a central line put in to hasten the hydration, and antibiotics to stave off the pneumonia. She also has septic shock, which was part of why she went downhill so fast. She is now temporarily on a respirator and heavily sedated to try and bring her back. But the prognosis is very grim. She has a chance, but a slim one. They will be checking each morning to determine progress. This is very hard on me and my three kids. It is hard to see them go through this. We need your continued prayers. I will keep you posted if there is any change either way. I am whipped, but I am taking care of myself the best I can. Blessings.
