Today I met with Dr. Burt at Northwestern Hospital. He examined my ears and said I was looking much better. He gave me a prescripton for ear drops and told me I was to be admitted tomorrow at 8 am.
My mother was talking to Dr.Burt about my cousin that just passed away. It was sudden and without warning. They think he may have died from the same thing my grandmother had when she passed away. She was only 35 years old and she just stopped talking while siting in a car and died suddenly. At that time the technology wasn't
available to diagnose the cause of death. They now think it was Verticular Cardio Myopathy. Now a cardiologist is going to check me again tomorrow just to be sure I don't have this condition.
I'll let you know when I will be admitted.
Love
Jill

Sunday, January 11th:
Jill's admission has been changed again. She has to meet the doctor tomorrow afternoon at the hospital.
He wants to examine her again before they admit her.
Her ears still hurt and they are afraid to go ahead with the transplant until she is completely over this cold.
It is a little disappointing but I know the doctor is looking at what could happen if this isn't taken care of first.
She may have to go on antibiotics again.
Love
