Updates from Thursday, December 18th

Quoted from Tiffany Ashley's Facebook page:


Here is Thursday morning news. At 1 am Wendy's blood pressure started to drop, her oxygen saturation is low and she started to have a fever as well. She was moved back to ICU. She is awake and able to talk, which is a more important observation than the low numbers on her vitals. There are two possible causes for her condition. One is that she has an infection or a blood clot in her lungs. Most likely the infection. so they have upped her antibiotics.

Thursday afternoon. Randy Wallace says: Our day started early you know. Since Wendy Oliveira Wallace reaquaintance with the ICU, she has been re-intubated, had x-rays, and a CAT scan. Their trying to figure out the cause of her infection. They think it might be her HIckman line, which is a line to the top of her heart used to deliver the chemo. They put a new line in and will take the Hickman out. They have her on antibiotics and medication to stabilize her blood pressure. Right now Wendy is resting. It has been an ordeal and she is exhausted.
