Jeanne is being put on a ventilator
Today Jeanne is being put on a ventilator to help her breathing, and will start receiving dialysis. Her kidneys are not working as a side effect from the anti-viral drugs she has been receiving, and usually this type of drug induced kidney problem will correct itself. But in the meantime her body is accumulating to much fluid which makes her breathing more difficult. The dialysis will help to remove that fluid, and the venilator will help her breath, rest, and maintain her lung capacity.
Please send some healing energy in Jeannes direction while this is going on. We will update this again soon.

Thanks for the update. I'm sorry to hear it of course, but hoepfuly this support will give her various systems the help they need. I'm here when you need me. mog
Jeanne, I hope you feel very relieved very soon, as your body gets a chance to take a break from working so hard. Later this summer you will be sittin' on the porch amazing everyone with your stories of how you got through this hard time.
Jeanne,
You have come up against another nasty curve in this long and winding road you're on. I hope you are resting easier now, and regaining some of your lost strength, which will help you become well again with a little less fight. I sure do miss you, and want to visit you again soon. You, Jon, Josh and Josina are in my prayers each and everyday. Never a day goes by without positive energy and thoughts coming from me, to all of you.
Hugs,
G
Jeanne you've been in my mind so many times lately I am sending you a prayerful thought and spiritual strength to get you through this time. My prayer is that each breath that is given you provides strength and healing.
Sister Midwife I pray that the energies that you helped into the world now help you to be strong and powerful in this- your time of need. I pray for a peace to settle over you to give you rest and calm. Rest my dear mentor. I am confident that in this battle you will overcome. I am looking forward to holding your hands soon-the hands that helped me learn to catch babies and that taught me so much about midwifery through these years. My love to you Jeanne -
Jeanne you have been on my mind constantly here in Africa - on this continent you love. You are strong and can make it through this. I am sending lots of postitive energy to you and Jon, Josh and Josina. Love, Jody

I see you lit from within by the strong African sun. Your children will hear you whisper words of love in the soft breezes of warm Michigan evenings. Mothers and babies will know more strength because you walked the earth with them. I am enriched in countless ways having known you. May this transition be peaceful.
With love, a midwife
My heart is very heavy. I can not believe that such a wonderful soul has left us. I will miss her terribly. She has such light and joy and gifts of strength, tenderness, and giving of herself to others. I send my love and prayers to her family who must be in unbearable pain. Know that my thoughts are with you today and always..my love to you, Kathryn
