Week 5 Update:

Update posted by Miracle Singh

Mami successfully completed her 3rd procedure ever since falling suddenly ill. She has been on ventilator since Week 1. We were forced to resort in undergoing Tracheostomy where a small incision is done in her trachea, then, reconnecting the tube from the mouth to her neck.

It is Day 1 after the procedure and we are all monitoring good developments. Late this afternoon, she was having a hard time breathing. Not sure if she is still adjusting. Anyhow, aside from the whole intubation thing, she has fungal pneumonia that she is fighting. Each vial costs around 7,000 pesos and she usually take 2-4 doses in a day to fight off the infection. So far, she is responding to this very expensive antibiotic which might take from 7-14 days.
