Please say a prayer for my friend...
My best friend of over 20 years is in ICU.
Last week she had triplets and has since developed a very rare blood and kidney disease called Hemolytic Uremia Syndrome. She had the triplets so early because she developed toxemia and preeclamsia so they admitted her and a week later had a C-section.
This disease is so rare that the hospital she's in...one of the best in the country...has only seen this happen twice in 25 years.
Right now they are giving her treatments that will filter out her infected blood and they are replacing it with good plasma. As of a few days ago, it wasn't working but they continue to try.
Yesterday she was able to see and hold her babies and it's lifted her spirits just a little.
Her family and friends are devastated by this and can only hope and pray that she'll pull through.
Thanks everyone.
