Wishing your sisters and your family strength during this tough time, Sandpiper.

I continue to pray for your two sisters. Peace be with you.

Sandpiper,
How are your sisters? Hope they're getting better.

Yes, can you give us an update when you have a sec?

God bless!

So very sorry for the long delay. The days seem to get away from me and I fall asleep in the chair. My sister who had the heart surgery is doing very well. Home from the hospital within a week and after her first visit to the doctor had good results. Thank God.

My twin goes back to the Doctor tomorrow. They are still treating her for the infection with IV meds twice a day and I'm still changing her wound 4 times a day. She has a home health aide who really does not do much. But she's feeling better and we'll know more tomorrow.

So thanks so much for the prayers and I'm asking you all to please continue to hold them up in prayer. The recovery process takes time.

Jabber how are your family members and friend doing? I'll definitely add them to my prayers. This is the best place to ask for prayers. Our sisterhood comes together and there are results shown. Thanks again everyone and I'll keep you posted and try to get by here more.

Sandpiper, thanks for the update. I'm guessing you are your sister's primary caregiver? If so, no wonder you fall asleep when you sit down.

Continued recovery for both your sisters. I'm so glad to hear things are coming along.

Thought I'd post an update about my sisters. The older one who had the triple bypass open heart surgery is doing really very good. She has her good and bad days but the Doctor said she's doing great. Thank all of you for those prayers.

My other sister, my twin, is still having problems from the surgeries. The wound from the second surgery is still open and draining something. Then about a week ago she had to have a drain put in not far from the other site because a CT scan found a pocket of infection they had missed. So, they are not treating her for the first infection and giving her pills for the second one. This is ongoing but it seems like nothing is getting done.

We go back to the Doctors on Tuesday and he's going to give me some answers or else. The original surgery was May 20th and here we are in August and she's still messing about with infections and such. So I dearly would love more of your prayers. She needs this situation to be resolved. Thanks to all of you for your support so far. God loves you all and so do I.

I'm wondering if an Infection Control Specialist might help. Or at least a second opinion. I agree with you it seems like a long time to be dealing with this one issue.

My wishes are for this whole thing to just go bye bye ASAP!!!!!!!!

Unbelievable that the infections are still going on. I've never heard of such. I'm with you that the doc would be coming to me with answers or the board would hear about it. That is ridiculous. God love her, she should not have to deal with this!

Prayers will be ongoing. When you can, please let us know what you find out.
