I visited with Dorothea this morning, along with Harold and John. The nurses said that she seemed to sleep well last night. She was very tired, yet she was alert almost the entire time I was there (about 90 minutes). She listened to our conversations and every once in a while would say something, or smile. She seemed very restless, moving her legs around. We teased her that she wanted to run out of the hospital. There is only supposed to be 2 visitors at a time, but they allowed us to have all 3 of us, which was very nice.
Harold just called with the following update. He met with a new Diabetes Dr. who actually took the time to sit down and talk with him! They came to a compromise and they are going to start Dorothea on the 24 hr insulin, but start in low dosages rather than the high dosages that were being ordered. Harold seems pleased with this compromise.
Dorothea is having much more trouble breathing, so they have decided to intubate her. This process is going on as I type this message. Please keep your prayers coming, Dorothea needs a lot of faith and strength to fight through this battle. Please pray for Harold as well.
