She has been asking since Sunday when she can go home. Her parents and Dr's sat down and had a chat with her. They explained that if they remove the vent and send her home, she will die and quickly. They said if she stays and they can get her strength up, she has a fighting chance at living longer. How long? Who knows?
So she's fighting. She wrote on her whiteboard, "Dieing (sic) is not an option." and put check boxes for 'yes' and 'no'. (Forgive her spelling, she IS on drugs).
So we'll see what happens. Unfortunately for me, she doesn't want any visitors because she wants to rest. So the earliest I may see her is next week.
The journey continues.
Re: A has decided to fight...
good for her. and i'm sure she looks forward to seeing you!
She's amazing. So are you.

[QUOTE]That is a mightly good reason not to want to see you. I'm thinking of you guys. Try to get yourself some rest, too. You need your strength as well.

Just to clarify, I am in no way butt hurt about the 'no visitors' thing. I totally get it. And you know what, I'd rather see her when she can talk (which will be soon, hopefully). Otherwise, I'm just staring at her and talking *at* her.
All the other times she's been in the hospital, I've been able to talk to her. I am sad that we can't even talk. I'm missing that a LOT. I've went to call her countless times in the last week.
