Elizabeth is struggling. She is back on the ventilator and her Oxygen sats have been dropping. She is on oxygen through her vent and they have upped the setting. Please say some extra prayers for her. She was doing so well just this morning and now she is having a little set back.
OH, also she has a problem with her intestines. They are backing up into her stomach and they may have to hook up suction to keep the bile out of her stomach. She cannot even be tube fed now because it can't empty into her intestines and so on like it should. She will only be getting I.V. fluids with a little glucose for a couple more days.
She is suffering.

About Me
- Trish Dawson
- I have 18 year old triplets and my husband of 23 years, Tom. I have a family blog and my weight-loss blog. The family one is for whoever wants to read it. I'm 44 years old and overweight. I'm sick of being uncomfortable in my own body and really hate running into people from my past that only knew me when I was thin. I'm embarrassed by how I've let myself go. I want to feel good again. I want more energy. My husband, Tom and my teenage triplets will be my support system along my journey to 150lbs. I CAN DO IT!

I’ve had two surgeries and each time, it took almost a week for my intestines to start working again. I think this was due to the anesthetic. On the first surgery, they had a suction tube in my stomach right from time of the surgery; they removed it after a few days when there was no more drainage. I don't think this is really unusual. I'll pray for her speedy recovery.
