[TMIC] Update on Kim
Hi gang! I just wanted to give you an update on Kim. She did go to the ER last night, because she got much worse as the night went on. They stared the IV steroids and Morphine. She was admitted and will be there for at least a few days. They are going to do an MRI and some other test today. She will have her laptop later on today and will update everyone. Make it a great day! Jenna

I am so sorry to hear about this. I have been and will be praying for her. Barbara H. _http://barbarah.wordpress.com/_ (http://barbarah.wordpress.com/) In a message dated 1/20/2009 11:24:54 P.M.

Jude's husband called Pam to let her know that Jude's blood pressure went very low, she is very weak and with her infection she was admitted to the hospital. Her husband was very tired and on his way to bed so this is all the information that was given. He did want to make sure that this was posted to the list. He is going back to the hospital early in the morning. You are in our thoughts and prayers, dear Jude. **A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!

Re: [TMIC] JUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish they would just take her over to University of Michigan Hospital in Ann Arbor. It is about an hour and a half from McLaren's and is an excellent hospital. Cutting edge technology and the top notch doctors. I wouldn't be wasting my time at McLaren's in Flint. Gosh. So frustrating. Poor, poor Jude. I feel so helpless reading all of this.

Re: [TMIC] JUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Patti, I just sent a note to the list saying the same thing about U of M in Ann Arbor. Much, much better hospital. I think not even an hour and a half from the Flint hospital. I used to live in Fenton (near Flint) and was never impressed with McLaren's hospital. We always drove the extra to use U of M when needed. Did my note make it to the list by the way? I never see it.

Re: [TMIC] JUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I too want to thank you so much for keeping us informed of what is happening to Jude. She is in our prayers and our thoughts! It's hard to believe all that she has been through. Yet she still worries about us! I must admit that I have come and gone on this list over the last 7 yrs... but Jude has been faithful. When one of us suffers we all suffer When I got home today I was almost afraid to check the list for fear that she had gotten much worse. I have lost Jude's home address.

Re: [TMIC] JUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My TM was diagnosed at University of Michigan Hospital in 2005. I was hospitalized for a week prior in Minnesota, while the doctors bickered over a diagnosis. It is a darn good hospital, and I met a lot of nice people, whom I still keep in touch with. I believe Jude would get top-notch medical care at the U.

[TMIC] Update
First I would like to express my heartfelt prayes and good thoughts to Jude, from the email contacts I have had with her she is truly an inspirational woman and has help support so many others in there time of need without thinking about her self So to All My TM family Thank Youall for the broadcast and personal responses last night. I as at a total loss on what to do as never had issue with my arms or hands. I did go to the ER and I am back in Piedmont hospital in Bukhead (Downtown Atlanta GA) Got up Wed am neck and back was stiff and I thought I slept wrong and went on in to work, by 2 my hands started to sting and get stiff (like when you have been raking leaves all day and last there stiff and sore) I could not make a fist or straighten them out… to painful to even pick up my office pen left work on time and went home… progressively got worse and pain was almost unbearable Talked to Jenna for awhile kicking around what to do, she gave me the number to our on call Nero. He said to go back and rest and only go to ER if my mobility is effected… well after and hour of “rest” I could not get comfortable, and when I went to stand up my good left leg it gave out like my right would and I hit the floor, we had already packed an ER bag so headed to Piedmont. From time in door to ER bed was less than 15 minutes… Nero on call was the one I talked to at home, he told ER doc to start running the usual test too see if there was any infections, if not start the steroids ASAP, then comes my friend Morphine! I was admitted to a room by 3 and by 5 I could make a fist and straightened my hands out, was still painful but I could do it... by 9 am most the pain is gone now still a little sore, There going to give me triple the steroids required to keep the left leg from getting worse ! (Oh and let me tell you Morphine at 9am for breakfast ROCKS)!! I had my MRI’s today Brain (yep was confirmed I have a Brain) Neck, upper and lower spine), they did contrast and Non contrast, Let me tell you 3 hours in a MRI, not fun! Will know results tomorrow and will post ya all They are talking about sending me home tomorrow with the IV pump and bags and I can changed myself or see how I feel and if I am still week I will be here until Sunday (I vote for stay here and let them do the work, will have plenty on my plate once I get home) So good new is the left leg did not spread and the pain level is back to what it was Tuesday before the newest relapse So all and all this flair up /relapse is turning out good new and I get all the free “Sugar Free Pudding” I want!, Bad new is if I see "House" walk in I will just cash my chips in LOL (Note with the Morphine I have not had any sleep since I got up at6:00amWed to go to wokdso going on 45 hours and no sleep, from here on you will have to “sound out a lot of my emails) Per Jenna last year when I was sending out email on Morphine they were funny to read (they made sense to me and I even spell checked but guess Morphine plays tricks with my spell check ability) The words look fine to me but she said there not. Sso will keep ya posted if you can’t understand the email pass it to a small child and they will translate for you! Hugs and prayers to all of you! (Oh and looks like I wont be making the Atlanta support group this weekend Kim
