Update on Rene

Hello everyone! For those of you who don't know me, I'm Pamela, Rene's sister.  For those of you who do know me, don't worry!!

Rene knew you would all be wondering what was happening, so she asked me to do a quick post.

Rene's appointment was moved up to 2:45PM.  She's still there. Her PT/INR is 7.4.  The PT/INR is a measure of her blood clotting time.  Average time varies, but is around 2.5-3.5.  The higher the number, the slower your clotting ability.  Needless to say, with a number like 7.4 it's best to stay close to the hospital.  Please keep in mind, I have no medical training, I'm just doing my best to explain it the way I understand.

The docs are also doing scans of Rene's liver and gall bladder.  They haven't decided yet if they are admitting her.  I'll let you know when I hear something.

For now, please pray that the docs make good, informed decisions about how to proceed.  Pray for Rene and her acceptance of the "doctor's orders."  Mostly, pray for her healing and for her to feel the presence of our loving and  comforting God.

More later,
Pamela
