We had the family reunion with travelers from near and far on November 9th. Unfortunately LaDonna missed the celebration. She was admitted to the hospital the day before. She came back to Terri's house briefly on Sunday, and then went back for treatment of the skin problem.
LaDonna has a new syndrome affecting her body. It is called SJS (Stevens Johnson Syndrome) and it is a reaction to the drugs she has been taking. Stevens Johnson Syndrome can begin with a fever, sore throat and headache and over a few days or minutes can turn into skin lesions and blisters. Stevens Johnson Syndrome is characterized by inflammation of the mucous membranes of the mouth, throat, eyes and intestinal tract.
LaDonna has a rash both internally and externally. The doctors have been treating her since last Sunday in Sutter Davis.
She is back on the road to recovery. Her lungs are better, her kidneys are better and her blood work is looking pretty good. Terri picked her up this evening (Nov 18).
Let's pray for a rapid recovery.
