| nutmeg User ID: 27310787 12/10/2012 11:21 PM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Many know me here for the last 8/9 years and I have never asked for anything... Now,I am. Quoting: Meow... 3650237 My little sister,Debbie,is in a coma...has been since Smy sister...aturday night. A wonderful girl...worked hard all her life,never married,no one ever took care of her... She raised 2 girls,both chose health care fields. She never had anyone take care of her...never had anyone else pay the rent or buy food... It was always her,by herself. She is an amazing woman-girl,to me-my sister. Now,she is in a coma at Genesis West in Davenport,Iowa. No one knows what to do,what is wrong,how to save her. I love her so much. Losing Deb would be just like losing my Mom again... I don't know if God makes deals,but,if He does,we have one. Prayers and Hugs for you and Deb... |

She was in rehab for a broken bone...had several joints replaced( I will NEVER)...was to get out on the 12th but last Saturday,she became incoherant and got worse. She was transferred to Genesis West in Davenport,Iowa where she is now. Do you know what meds she was given while in rehab? If there's a way you could get a copy of them there might be a clue. I sure hope she recovers, OP. She sounds like a remarkable woman. I hope you'll let us know when she's well. HAVE THEM CONSIDER FAT EMBOLIZATION, frequent after joint surgery, also pulmonary emboli, also common after replacement surgery |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 27352798 12/10/2012 11:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You may want to consider getting her transferred in an ambulance to University of Iowa Hospitial in Iowa City. They are one of the better hospitals in that whole area and not that far from you. If you feel your sister is not getting the high quality of attention and knowledge that she needs in Davenport, MOVE HER. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27352798 Call them, here is their number: 319-356-1616; Toll Free: 800-777-8442. Ask them about the procedure for moving your sister. I lived in S.E. Iowa for 17 years, Davenport is kind of a podunk hospital, not bad but not fabulous either. U of I has a MUCH better reputation. If she's got meningitis, she needs urgent care. I know! I know! I keep saying 'Iowa City' but no one listens!!! Call them in Iowa City, those are the numbers that I looked up for you; ASK them how to proceed. They will explain what you need to do. YOU need to follow through on this, nobody else is going to do it. CALL the U of I Hospital, explain what is happening, tell them you want your sister in their hospital. NOBODY can force anyone to stay in a hospital. You can move her even AGAINST the doctors' recommendation. You might need to get a court order, unless you already have medical power of attorney. That is why you must call the U of I people and at least get more information. Courage. |

Quoting: meow... 3650237 I love you all for taking the time out of your lives to help me. ~annie do have them consider the things I mentioned, they are fairly unusual but can do what you say with sudden onset especially if the procedure was difficult, lengthy or post op mobility was limited, as always, it is to be understood not my will, but thine. It shall work out for the best, you have to believe that. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 25390958 12/10/2012 11:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | They thought it was meningites (sp)or something like that but don't know what the fuck THEY ARE DOING. WON'T DO AN MRI OR CAT so no one will be held responsible when this sweet girl dies. Hey! Thanks,obutthole! if they wont do the mri that is simply not proper procedure. they have no idea what's going on in the skull to result in a coma, if the routine bloodwork is normal, an mri is absolutely required. remove her to someplace that will do things properly. Comas have to be treated, not watched. |

She was transferred to Genesis West in Davenport,Iowa where she is now. She had an implant/appliance/medical device put in??????? Get them out..they are the problem or either the surgery caused some kind of infection. I would call the hospital and tell them I will sue them for every fucking dime they will ever make if they LET her die. Talk to the hospital administrator and give him a new ass hole. If you do nothing you will suffer guilt. Scream, yell and demand....get ugly with them and go after their jugular. The only thing they understand is money. Go after their money and they will listen to you and you will get action. |

They are hoping that nobody will notice or just accept that there is nothing to be done. Take their fucking skin off and raise mortel hell with them Demand an MRI demand whatever........get somebody to go to the hospital and bitch hellfire and damnation. DON'T just sit back and let this go. |
