Sundae
 
Sundae's Mum called me this morning and asked me to post this on her behalf.

Unfortunately, Sundae is in hospital once again and has been through a something of a rough time.
She was admitted on Wednesday morning but in the early hours of Friday suffered the first of two fits.
During the second fit, she went into cardiac arrest and had to be resuscitated.
As of this morning her condition was described as serious but she is making progress.
She's presently in an intensive care ward and her transfer to a general ward will depend on the speed of her recovery.
As you might imagine, a prolonged stay in hospital is expected.
If you've sent Sundae a PM, Email, text or letter recently, and not had a reply, you'll understand why.

Shit. Thanks for letting us know Carruthers.

xoxoxoBruce 11-20-2016 06:56 AM

Damn, I thought she was doing much better. :(

Clodfobble 11-20-2016 07:08 AM

Is "fit" British for "seizure," or does it mean something less specific? Thank you for keeping us in the loop, Carruthers, and I hope she starts improving very soon.

Yes, I think that seizure and fit can be considered the same thing in everyday terms.

She is in my prayers.

So sad to hear this. :(

Gravdigr 11-20-2016 12:52 PM

Get well soon, SundaeGirl!! You're in our prayers, also.

I knew she shouldn't have hair-colored hair...:(

Gravdigr 11-20-2016 12:54 PM

Thanks for letting us know, Mr. Carruthers.

DanaC 11-20-2016 01:35 PM

Just had a chat with Sundae's mum. Sounds like she's had a horribly worrying few days. It also sounds like Sundae's condition is improving, though she may need to stay in critical care another day or two - the doctors are hoping she'll be well enough to move to a general ward very soon. Which is something at least.

footfootfoot 11-20-2016 01:52 PM

Fuuuuuuuck

glatt 11-20-2016 04:09 PM

Yeah. It doesn't get too much worse than cardiac arrest. Scary.

elSicomoro 11-20-2016 05:57 PM

I finally got to open my card from her the other day after I got home from the road. It was very sweet, and I hate to see her in such shape. I wish her the best for a speedy recovery!

monster 11-20-2016 07:21 PM

monster 11-20-2016 07:27 PM

Carruthers, do you know if she's in hospital near her mum or up north?

lumberjim 11-20-2016 07:53 PM

Sadness

BigV 11-20-2016 08:02 PM

I wish you the best Sundae.

My words are hopelessly inadequate. I wish for the best for Mum and the rest of the family as well.

Thank you Carruther and DanaC for keeping us informed. One small request... if you can manage it, send better news if possible. Thanks in advance.

Lola Bunny 11-20-2016 08:05 PM

Praying for her recovery soon.

She's in hospital in Leeds and her mum is also in Leeds and visiting daily.

classicman 11-21-2016 02:17 PM

:( Poor Sundae. Praying for speedy healing and full recovery.
Thanks to those of you closest for keeping the rest of us informed.

DanaC 11-21-2016 03:03 PM

Got a message from Carruthers - Sundae's taken a turn for the worse. She's in a side ward at the critical care unit.

From the message he got from her mum, I think they've stabilised her again, but she's not in good shape.

her mum's had to return to the South - Sundae's Dad needs her care too (poor Sundae's mum, how torn she must be feeling) and there's currently nothing she can do here. I think she's planning on coming back north if the situation changes.

DanaC 11-21-2016 03:05 PM

I'm on a shitty late shift which pretty much stomps on any hope of getting over to Leeds without taking short notice leave (not much tolerated unless for immediate family needs). I'm monitoring messages and depending how the week plays out I might just have to.

Clodfobble 11-21-2016 03:09 PM

Damn.

Sundae,

I hope you will be able to read this. Get well.

All my blessings and hopes for your recovery.

classicman 11-21-2016 05:08 PM

Ugghhh ... :(

Gravdigr 11-21-2016 11:18 PM

This is not the news I wanted to get.


Sarge hasn't been around here lately, I assume someone in more regular contact with him has let him know...

:sniff:

Carruthers 11-23-2016 05:20 AM

A brief update.

I called in on Sundae's Mum and Dad this morning and was told that she had had a 'steady night' but was still very unwell.

I'm sorry that I don't have more positive news for you but I will keep you abreast of developments.

Carruthers.

glatt 11-23-2016 06:34 AM

Thanks, Carruthers

Griff 11-23-2016 08:26 AM

Thank you C. I thought she was doing better as well. :sniff:

xoxoxoBruce 11-23-2016 09:56 AM

Yes, thank you Carruthers.

Clodfobble 11-23-2016 10:05 AM

Damn again. Hope steady turns into good soon.

infinite monkey 11-23-2016 10:38 AM

Thinking about her a lot. I hope she gets way better really soon.

Big Sarge 11-23-2016 12:38 PM

Dear Lord. This is terrible, makes my stomach churn. She is in our prayers. Classicman, thanks for the heads up

Steady sounds good for now.

I'll take steady.

orthodoc 11-23-2016 09:25 PM

Oh no. :(

classicman 11-24-2016 10:47 AM

I am thankful for the update. I hope and pray that her progress continues to improve.

You are more than welcome, Sarge. Glad you checked in. Will call you in a bit.

captainhook455 11-24-2016 03:12 PM

Sundae come back to us. We all love you.

monster 11-26-2016 08:48 AM

is there any word on how Sundae is doing? She's in my thoughts :(

Griff 11-26-2016 08:53 AM

Holding my breath with every new post here, but update wanted.

Carruthers 11-26-2016 09:01 AM

I can't go into detail, but I had a text from Sundae's mum this morning which indicates a slight improvement in her condition.

Progress seems slow, but at least it's progress.

Griff 11-26-2016 09:05 AM

Thanks man.

orthodoc 11-26-2016 09:15 AM

Thank you. Have been thinking of her throughout the holiday. Glad to hear she's making some progress.

xoxoxoBruce 11-26-2016 09:57 AM

Thanks again, Sir.

Gravdigr 11-26-2016 10:35 AM

Progress is good. Slow, or otherwise.

infinite monkey 11-26-2016 12:22 PM

Thanks for the update, I've been thinking about her also.

monster 11-26-2016 12:42 PM

Thanks, Carruthers

I want Sundae to be well. Get well soon Sundae! Some of us are counting on you! Our lives are incomplete without knowing you are well!

It's all we can hope for...thanks Carruthers.

captainhook455 11-26-2016 07:14 PM

Its that shitty hospital food that makes the sick arise and get outta town. Just the smell of breakfast made me want to puke. Thank God there is a lid on those plates. Nothing better than a turkey cheese burger except a 2 piece dark from KFC. After a few days I just had a plate of macaroni and cheese with chocolate pudding for lunch and dinner, everyday.
Sundae needs a mess of baby fried catfish, collards, rice and maters. A pitcher of sweet ice tea with a slice of lemon meringue pie.
This is our lunch for tomorrow. I will save a seat for you dear Sundae.

Part of me thinks that sounds wonderful, Captain. Then part of me feels my cholesterol balloon.

xoxoxoBruce 11-26-2016 11:59 PM

OK, knock it off you attention whore. Get the fuck out of that hospital, I'm tired of being worried sick about you. I'm sure your Mum and Carruthers are too. http://cellar.org/2015/willy_nilly.gif

Mine's once a week, all week long.

classicman 11-28-2016 12:16 PM

I was away since Wed. Been worried about her and almost sick thinking about checking back here. ANY progress to me is great and should be celebrated.

Big Sarge 11-29-2016 06:33 PM

Still praying hard.
