Please give Zombie my love when you see her, thegreylady.

You are such a good friend & the Star of the phalanx - you are at the head of it.

Copious gin ration being handed out - and please all drink to Zombie's recovery asap.

Another poster delurking to send Zombie Thanks (and unmumsnetty hugs). Hoping she kicks this infection soon.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 11/05/2015 20:46

ah O2 levels - I remember now, when DS4 was a baby and had Krupp his level was around 90 so they kept him in for the night after being given some liquid steroid.

I'm not surprised they switched to mask if Z's level is low 80s. it will make a positive difference.

thanks for explaining/reminding.Thanks

Really hoping for some better news today.

mummylin2495 · 12/05/2015 11:46

Here's hoping that Zombie is well enough to have a visit from TGL today, keeping fingers crossed for any little glimmer of improvement.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 12/05/2015 12:09

Thinking of you Zombie, hoping you will be over the worst soon and getting better.
fx you are well enough for a visitor.
big hugs x

iklboo · 12/05/2015 12:38

Right, infection. It's been over a week. You've outstayed your welcome by a very long way.

SLING YOUR FUCKING HOOK!!

Ahem.

Here's hoping today finds Zombie brighter. Love & hugs.

Allalonenow · 12/05/2015 14:21

Sending you love Zombie, and am crossing everything just like Madonna hoping you have turned the corner and are improving today. Thanks Thanks

thegreylady · 12/05/2015 17:18

Just back. Z was very very sleepy and not really up for a visit so I only stayed about 15 minutes. Her blood sats have improved and she only uses the oxygen when she is breathless. Her belly is still swollen and she is in some discomfort but she says she feels better. The antibx are ongoing. I will pop back on Thursday as I have to go that way anyway. She really didn't feel like chatting today but she sends her love to you all.

mummylin2495 · 12/05/2015 17:29

At least there seems to be a little improvement, that is far better than none, and maybe a bit more tomorrow and so on. Thankyou so much TGL for the update, I keep avidly looking at this thread for the latest news. Thanks for you TGL.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 12/05/2015 18:23

Pleased to hear that there is improvement and that Zomb is actually feeling better.

Thank you greylady you're a great friend Flowers

Wine? I have a feeling you don't drink but I'll toast you - clink!

thegreylady · 13/05/2015 07:35

BBB I am partial to a nice red, a chilled white, a good brandy and several other such beverages :). Wine
Not keen on gin or vodka though....
I tend not to drink often or indeed a great deal as I get rather silly and the hangovers are horrendous.
However I never refuse Brew and Cake

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 13/05/2015 09:16

Brew Brew Brew Brew Brew Brew Brew Brew Brew Brew Brew Brew Brew

for TGL mainly but there's enough for everyone!Wink

Allalonenow · 13/05/2015 11:12

So good to hear some more positive news from greylady really sounds as though Zombie is starting to rally now.

I love all the Brew and Cake Zing! Off to make a Brew now!

Sending you lots of healing vibes Zombie

mummylin2495 · 13/05/2015 20:58

Here's hoping that Zombie has had a much better day today

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 13/05/2015 23:28

You are a real sweetie greylady, I suspect your reasons for not drinking are exactly the same as the rest of us for doing it.

In fact, I think you've just christened the shindig that we're planning for when Z is feeling better.

"The Rather Silly Zombie Hooley" Grin

"The Zombie Hooley of Rather Silliness" ?

Wolfiefan · 13/05/2015 23:30

Thanks for the update. Wishing Zomb a better day tomorrow.
Iklboo has it right. Fuck right off now infection!

iklboo · 14/05/2015 11:43

Hoping for a perkier, pain free day for Zombie.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 14/05/2015 12:59

I think we need to call immigration control - this infection's passport has expires ages ago yet it is still lurking about. fuck right off you twat!

(i don't actually have an apronGrin )

I hope you're feeling better and better Zombie. I feel like sending you a virtual MaccyD or a nice steak but not sure if you are able to eat - and if not that'd be cruel.

Hopefully you are well enough and TGL can visit you. she must be pretty fit carrying these heavy bags filled with hugs and kisses and love.
Wink
love you x

thegreylady · 14/05/2015 15:15

I have just got back from a brief visit. Z has seen her oncologist. She is improving but more slowly than they hoped. Her voice was a bit stronger but she is still very sleepy. She has to have a ct scan and an electrocardiogram.
I wont be able to go back for a week now so hopefully there will be some huge good news before then. I'll update from fb and texts if I hear anything. Much love x

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 14/05/2015 15:23

Brew & Cake for you TGL
I might throw in a foot massage!Wink

thanks for update, slow improvement is better than none so let's hope Z keeps getting better.

FuckYouChrisAndThatHorse · 14/05/2015 15:29

TheGreyLady, I'm so glad zombie was up for a visit no matter how short. I do so hope she gets stronger over the next few days. You've been so good updating us all throughout FlowersCake

mummylin2495 · 14/05/2015 16:00

Any improvement is hugely better than none at all. Let's hope that can continue every day. Any idea when she will be having her scan ? Thanks once again for the update.

magimedi · 14/05/2015 16:08

Daily improvement is what we want.

Brew & Cake for you TGL.

Your updates are so wonderful to get.

iklboo · 14/05/2015 16:42

Brew & Thanks TGL. You're a legend. Glad to hear of some improvement.
