My aunt spent the night in Intensive Care after a minor surgical procedure.

Was this just a precaution, or did things not go well?

Hope she recovers soon (at least as much as is possible).

Have I told you how much I admire you for the time and attention you give your aunt? If not--I do. I hope all goes well for her.

Yikes. I wish her a speedy recovery.

Her lungs are starting to fail as the nerves continue shutting down. The anesthetic and intubation tube probably contributed as well, but she's having trouble breathing.

Hmm, not sure I'm up to standards then, I didn't figure out she was still at the hospital until I went to take her car to the dealers for service at 7:30 this morning. I took a big bunch of flowers and discovered her door was shut. When I asked the nurse, I discovered that she was in hospital, and that they'd called for a copy of the DNR/DNV (as a precaution).

Thanks!

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope she remains comfortable as possible and recovers quickly...

Even when it was my mother, not my aunt, I couldn't be there, or even on instant alert, 24-7, and neither can you. You're doing a wonderful job of doing a good thing.
