-Ouma's condition is continuing to improve.
-She has been in the hospital since Wednesday of this past week and has been through a lot.
-Phone calls are still coming in from people who are unaware of her condition or what has happened.
-As of earlier tonight (Monday), the doctors are taking Ouma off of the antibiotics she has been taking for a staph infection in her blood.
-The infection is still present and the doctors do not know the cause or source, but her body is handling it well on it's own.
-Ouma handled one antibiotic well while another agitated her as it went through the vein.
-Ouma's fever has come down to normal.
-Her blood pressure is still a little high but the cardiologist is adjusting her medication to correct that.
-She is having to take a blood thinner (not sure which one) due to atrial fibrillation which can cause clotting leading to a stroke.
This is a great improvement from where Ouma has been since she was admitted on Wednesday. Saturday was a turning point for her though. Having already been healed from the effects of a stroke and pneumonia, Ouma was still very fevered from the infection in her blood which made her very uncomfortable. She was hardly able to rest - which we all know is a challenge for Ouma anyway. But something changed during the morning on Saturday because her fever, though still over 100, was much lower, her face was not as flush as it had been since Wednesday and she was more at ease and able to rest throughout the day. Ouma's appetite has gotten better although she is limited on her daily intake of fluids.
Please continue praying for Ouma. Again, her condition is greatly improved! I think the two main issues that remain are the atrial fibrillation and the blood infection. Pray that she be healed of the remaining illnesses and regains her strength back quickly. She is trusting Jesus to heal her completely. Please agree with her in prayer.
