My wife Freddy (Freda Lee) needs your prayers. We have known her liver was cirrhotic (s?) since 2001 when it was discovered during other surgery. She has stayed pretty healthy liver-wise in the years since. She also has cardiac and other health issues that complicate matters. She was recently hospitalized for a kidney infection which in combination with her liver being weaker than in past years made her deathly ill. I have been taking care of her at home the last week or so since the hospital, she is still very weak and very sick. Just getting dressed and going to a dr appt wears her out totally.
Her internal med docs are referring us to Shands in Gainesville to get registered for probably future liver transplant surgery. At this time we don't know if surgery is needed sooner or later. We do know that any other serious illness con become life-threatening quickly,which is what happened this time. A kidney infection was the culprit this time around. Kidney infection plus sickly liver equals BAD. She is not recovering quickly.
