Kitkatz wanted me to pass on her Skype name: kitkatz2 and asks that if anyone wants they can call her on there.

Though I will warn you - the meds are still making her little loopy and more apt to fall asleep on you and talk in her sleep - yes, even answer the phone and have a full conversation....

So, if you do call her make sure you ask her for her special talking password for IHD.com people - Ming.  That way, you can make sure you have Kitkatz and not her sleeping persona.

 :flower; update  :flower;

The last few days has been a bit crazy....literally.  Katherine has been having some wild mood swings, along with a lot of anxiety attacks, talking to people in her sleep, and repeating words, sentences, and complete conversations with us and the nursing staff at the hospital.  All day Sunday, she complained of being really really tired and would start to fall asleep every 5 minutes or so.  She begged us to keep her awake....and then would yell and curse at us for waking her up. She was so wild and out of it last night that when mom and I left the hospital, we had the consensus that KK was "bat-shit crazy".  ((Lovely medical term, huh?  Just remember, KK< if you read this later, we all do love you lots!!!))

This afternoon, after a long discussion about her reactions and mental state with her husband and her, the doctor decided that it was the morphine and administered an anti-morphine shot to start counteracting the drug's bad reaction.  She immediately started to perk up, finding the energy to stay awake, and talk with her husband.  Though she was acting a little more like herself, he said that she was still very confused and weak. 

Just now, Victor called me with the disheartening news that KK had become unresponsive again this evening and they were in the process of transferring her back to ICU.  As of right now, no one knows what caused it and I have a feeling we won't know until morning - their hospital seems to like to keep people in ICU stable for the night and then delve into reasons and diagnoses during the daylight.

Please keep KK in your prayers tonight and over the next couple of days.  I think we're going to need all you can give right now.

This is really disappointing and scary news.  I'm starting to feel quite nervous.

I'm hoping to hear better news very soon.

 :flower; UPDATE  :flower;

KK was placed back on the ventilator at 4 AM this morning.

*insert a lot of curse words here* 

No one knows why she's having this sudden regression - she was doing so well and then she slid back, losing everything she's achieved in the last 2 weeks.   Tests are continuing...

Once she heard the news this morning, mom said, "I think she's given up."  I really hope she's wrong.  KK is a strong-willed woman....but a body can only take so much abuse.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.  *sigh*
