Thursday Update: from Musicman: "Good afternoon. She is slowly improving. Her oxygen level is 94 and her resting heart rate is 109. They have downgraded her to a regular room. 🙂 The nurses seem nice here and they seem pretty attentive. The ICU nurses were there immediately when you pushed the nurse button."

@Thinkerbell Thank you. Prayers are still coming in for her from Prayer Warriors 365, too. So, with ALL of us beseeching God, He will surely heal her.

@LILPapi69 Yup. At least she can breathe. I suspect with the blood thinners that the blood clots in her lungs will gradually be reduced.
Unfortunately, blood thinners alone are not sufficient to remove the clots. The only thing they do is prevent the clots that are already there from getting bigger.

@4meAndyou I don't know if you know what that is. I was at home healthy for 3 years. A thrombolytic therapy uses clot-busting drugs to rapidly dissolve clots, and thrombectomy is a procedure (often minimally invasive with a catheter) to mechanically remove or suction out the clot. I know she will pull through. She sounds like a strong woman. Tell musicman we're pulling through for her. May I have her first name? I'll stop by the church In a little while and let my pastor know what's going on so we could pray for her.

@LILPapi69 They are not able to suction out the clots, because her spine is filled with rods and hooks, and she can't lie down without being sedated for the pain. Unfortunately, the suctioning procedure is done via catheter, through the groin, and she would have to be awake for them to do that.
