She's now on a respirator and unconscious. At first they thought it was an infection which was exacerbating her main illnesses, but the cultures came back yesterday and it's not. They don't know what set it off this time.
So I'm not going to be around much. Her specialists work out of a hospital an hour and a half away from here, and the three hour round trips each day are taking a toll on me. I'm going back to work tomorrow, but still plan to drive up to Columbia often.
Tonight, it's time for bed.
