hello!!!!

Johnny is typing for Lori.

"THANK YOU so much for all of your thoughts, calls, notes, prayers, and support.   As frustrating as all of this has been, and as difficult as it is to get through the day sometimes, I am able to find the strength I need from all of the support I am getting from all of you!  I can't thank you enough."

Lori continues to have headaches.  She is consulting with a new neurosurgeon on WED to try to find out "what the hell is going on!!!" :-)

Staph Infection:  she's finished taking the current medication, but she will have to monitor it from now on.  It's currently inactive.

She says, "I am so looking forward to feeling good enough to get back out in the real world.  I want to catch up with you soon....and maybe even take some trips!!"

love,

Lori and the Sneeds

Hi there! Here's the Latest

Lori is home recovering from gall bladder surgery.  Surgery was successful, but Lori is now contending with 2 new problems.

1. NPH - Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus.  Excessive fluid in the brain.   Could be a cause of some of Lori's headaches and memory problems.  May need a shunt inserted in the brain to alleviate that pressure.   We are consulting doctors about the next steps to take.

2.  MRSA -  Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus.  A staph infection we believe she contracted while at the hospital.   Just found out about that today.   Consulting with doctors.

Patti is now in Atlanta with Lori.  Johnny and Shorty just visited Lori a couple of weeks ago.

Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers.   Hope ya'll are doing well.  

Love
