Wed. Update on Wanda

This is what Cindy (Wanda's sister) wrote online yesterday from the hospital....
Wanda is doing MUCH better as of this afternoon. Again, the doctors are optimistic that the stint was the source of the infection. She is still on the dialysis machine, which is pulling fluid buildup from her body. However, her kidneys are producing some output, which is a good sign. The doctor hopes to have her off the dialysis machine tomorrow. When that happens, she may be ready for a room on the floor.THANKS to all who have asked and prayed.I will still keep posting as we know more. Wanda is feeling much better...asking for her cell phone!For those of you who have asked, Mother and Daddy are doing okay. Mother has been walking a little more this week and seems to be getting stronger; the wheelchair has helped walking all over UAB's complex!Daddy is weak from his chemo treatments last week (M-F), but is still chugging along. (For those of you who don't know, he has been diagnosed with MDS, which can develop into acute leukemia. He has been taking treatments for 2 months.)Again, please keep the prayers going for the whole family.
