tenuous
The news is bad today. Her breathing trouble stems from a few thinga: a blood clot in her right lung, fluid around her heart, and the stent in her trachea appears to have moved. A CT scan today revealed that her entire right lung is basically collapsed (that's the one that they had given up on). Dr. P describes her situation as "tenuous." I'm writing this in between packing to head out with Oona on a redeye tonight. She can't walk more than a few steps without getting utterly winded, and was unable to breathe today even with a full oxygen mask on. They're going to do everything they can for her, and all the above problems are, to some extent, treatable, but the scary part is that she doesn't have much strength right now for healing. Please send whatever good juice you've got.

Janet, Sarah, Jennifer and Clancy -
I was thinking of all of you on my way back to Colorado - and so wished that I didn't have to leave today. I know that Janet is under the best care and surrounded by love. Sending all of you a giant hug, and all my good energies to use for healing.
Love you all and with you in spirit.
