Visiting Guidelines

After a lengthy discussion with her doctor this evening and based on the doctor’s advice, Lannie will be given continuous IV drop plus a new pain medicine mixed in around the clock, starting tomorrow. According to the doctor, the medicine will be able to better control her belly pain and vomiting, thus will put her in a more comfortable situation. The downside of the new medication is that it will make her drowsy and sleepy, therefore, the hours when she will be awake and alert are reduced. Based on the doctor’s recommendation, the visitation hours will follow these new guidelines: 

1. There will a sign posted on the door of her hospital room.
2. All visitors need to have the nurse’s permission to enter her room.
3. Before allowing anyone to go in, the nurse will check on Lannie to see if she is awake and is in a position to see her friends and visitors.
4. Please keep your visitation time within 30-40 minutes.
5. Please avoid going to the hospital in large groups (no more than three people at a time).

Meanwhile, the doctor also agreed to keep her in the hospital indefinitely according to her current medical condition. Knowing that she is cared for around the clock by competent professional people is the best that we can get for her right now. 

We appreciate your understanding and continuous support for her. Please continue to keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you very much.

Lu, Qiang
