ICU
I don't want to be alarmist but Trudie is not doing so good right now.
The fever yesterday has become a full blown case of sepsis(also known as septic shock). It is an infection in the blood stream and is impacting any organ that gets blood. They are fighting it with massive antibiotics.
What isn't helping is that her body hasn't quite gotten used to the fact that it doesn't have a spleen any more. It was in the process of adjusting to no-spleen when this infection hit. So she is very sick now.
I'm here at the ICU waiting area. Her hematologist will be by this evening and I'll get more from him then.
