Yes, she was on one of those weird Christian missionary things. She's also a head of the nursing department at a local hospital so she's not dumb about it.

My aunt had to get flown back to USA from India. She's a type 1 diabetic and picked up some crazy infection that they aren't even sure what it is. They're performing a battery of tests now but meanwhile she's also in diabetic keto acidosis.

Hoping she pulls through but that is scary stuff.
It's amazing that people chose to travel there. India is the filthiest place on Earth.

I am sitting here drinking barium sulfate at 6 AM, I have to drink 3 bottles of it before my CT scan today.

This is my 6 month checkup to see if I still have cancer. This sucks and I might just rather not known than drink this shit every 6 months. Almost puked twice now.

3 bottles? God damn man. I'd be sick for days. When I have my scans they want me to drink 2 of them but fuck that. I'd end up sick the rest of the damn day. I've been dumping the 2nd one for a couple years now and they haven't complained yet. lol

Good luck with your scan. I've got to call and make my follow up scan too actually.

Yeah like I said she's a nurse and also went through all the prep. She said they had to boil water and take some other crazy precautions because they were in 'dead bodies in the water' India doing the mission. Chances are it was food or water but doctors aren't sure. She's doing much better with the DKA though. I think being type 1 really fucked her over on the infection.

3 bottles? Are they giving you Mucomyst as well, by chance?

Nope, I only drank one and that is all I ever drank at any other hospital. They didn't complain during the scan and I assume they can at least see a picture and be able to tell if it isn't going to work even if they don't know any results yet.

Love these people who don't prescribe Mucomyst to save the kidneys.
I have had hundreds of ct scans and drank god knows how much of that shit. I've also developed an allergic reaction to the IV contrast and no longer receive that. I've never heard of Mucomyst. Sounds like something I should have been given a few times in the past when I've had multiple ct scans in the course of a week or two.

I guess my aunt is being airlifted to another hospital, she went septic and has a 104 fever or something. Not looking so good.

Apparently my sister and mother both said "good", not sure what this woman did to them to deserve that.

I'm not really emotional over it, just think it was shitty for them to be happy she's dying haha

As far as hotness level, I can't even begin to comprehend but my initial judgement would be none of them would win any beauty pageants.

When you say "septic", do you actually mean septic shock? The reason I ask is because it's an actual continuum (SIRS -> Sepsis -> Severe Sepsis -> Septic Shock -> MODS)

She just wrote "Septic 102", and confirmed she contracted Typhoid.

Also she's been posting that the power of prayer has been healing her :\

Yeah, she's going to die. I would just count your loss and move on.


edit: Did you tell her to eat a lot of garlic?

Damn. Both of her sisters wrote her off like that? She did something fuuuuucked up.

She's a Christian Nurse that went to India. I'm assuming for a mission, probably.

Maybe every conversation with her was, "Why don't you love Jesus as much as I do?"

Man I would be so pissed off if i realized i want doing to die from typhoid. It would be like tripping and falling or getting kicked by a horse but you'd have a lengthy period of agony to think about what a bullshit reason to die.
