Well, I just got home Wed for another stay at the VA Hospital.  13 days this time.  3 in ICU.  I was a mess.  Still the same diabetic foot infection.  Somehow I had picked up a second infection--psuedamonas--a precursor to gangrene.  I went to urgent care with 106.8 temp and throwing up.  My electolytes were so out of wack that I couldn't stand up without falling over. 

I was in ICU to get to bags of blood and my blood sugar would shoot to 500 and then drop to 30.  I don't really remember the first week.  Except that I thought I had had a stroke.  They told me I almost died twice.  Only the Lord pulled me through and I am very grateful.  My Bible study group (50 wonderful ladies) were interceding mightily. 

I am home now, using my wheelchair (minimal wt bearing), on oxygen, and two different antibiotics.

God is so good and merciful!!!
