It's happening again... PLEASE GOD DON'T LET THIS ONE END IN THE SAME WAY!!!!

Landi is in a coma. My friend we went to visit in Durban last weekend. When she was fine. Or seemed fine. On Monday she was still running around on the beach. Monday afternoon she had her port (still there from pre transplant) flushed, and immediately she became violently ill. So badly that the air-ambulance flew her up to Joburg yesterday, and she slipped into a coma just before they got to the hospital due to swelling of her brain. She's been having headaches for the last while, but I don't think they know what's wrong yet. She can't die, she just can't. Right now she's stable. PLEASE PLEASE PRAY that she makes a full recovery... her lungs are fine... Even if it's the only thing you pray for today. She's my closest transplant buddy here in SA, and the only other young woman/female close to my age.

It's also exactly 1 month to go til the wedding. Exciting stuff. And I want Landi to be alive for it! Even if she can't make it, I just don't want her to be gone... :-(

Hey.
You dont know me, but I sometimes read your blog.
I know you worry about your friend, but i'm sure she will pull through.

When I was in hospital a few months ago, my hickman line got infected (stupid immunosuprresants) and I had a less server version of this. I was really ill for a few days. But once the anti biotics got into my system, things started clearing up.

Hopefully things will work the same sort of way for your friend.

My thoughts are with you.

I'm so sorry such things are happening to a sweet girl like you surely are!
I hope your friend will be ok.
I pray for her.
