Bobbi has asked me to put this up .Bobbi is having a problem getting to our site . Hi! This is Charlene - Colleen's sister. I know she has many dear and devoted friends on Facebook so I wanted to give you an update. Colleen was admitted to the Lake Norman Hospital today. She has a partially collapsed lung. It does not warrant intervention right now but they want to keep a close eye on her. Therefore, the hospital is the best place for her to be right now. Dan, of course, is with her. I will keep you updated until Colleen is feeling better and can do it herself. You all are very generous with your prayers, so I ask you to please continue to keep Colleen in your prayers. Many thanks..... Colleen your in my thoughts and prayers I will be lighting  for you @ the shrine tonight . |

update from colleens sister on face book ;
Hi! It's Charlene again. I talked to Dan a little while ago. Colleen is feeling a bit better. They have her on oxygen and are monitoring her closely. She has had some fluids which helped a lot. She will be in the hospital 2 or 3 days. Dan will bring her phone, iPad, and knitting to her this evening. Many thanks your continued prayers and good thoughts. I'll update again soon!

update ; Good morning! It's Charlene....After feeling very nauseous yesterday, Colleen was able to eat a bit of breakfast this morning. She's not ready to dance a jig yet but she'll get there! The Doctor has ordered another chest x-ray for later today to check on that lung. As soon as I hear from Dan I will let you know. Many thanks for your prayers and good thoughts - they seem to be working!!!

I talked to Charlene today and Colleen is in some pain from the tube in her side to remove air from her chest to re inflate the partially collapsed lung . They were having trouble managing her pain |

Update ~~Hi - it's Charlene with the evening update. I talked to Dan a little while ago. Colleen is feeling a bit better tonight. They are going to pinch off the tube and see if the lung stays inflated. Hopefully it does so the tube can come out. If all goes well she should be able to go home early next week. Many thanks for your continued prayers and good wishes. Until tomorrow.......
