Details of hospital and visitation

It is likely that Vicki has weeks to months left in the hospital. She loves to have visitors and the family will be looking to have people to take "shifts" as Vicki cannot handle being at the hospital by herself. Vicki's daughter, Brook, is acting as one of the primary "care givers" spending most days and nights in the hospital. If you are interested in visiting or taking a shift please communicate with Brook (brookyates@gmail.com - 970-333-4035). Vicki is on so many drugs and her short term memory has been affected she cannot keep up with the schedule.

She is at MD Anderson in room P816. If you park in parking lot #2 (this is the best parking lot) walk across the street towards the MD Anderson building you will get on elevator E. Take the E elevator to the 8th floor. There are two units on the floor - walk to the unit on the left and just ask for room P816. If you walk to the unit on the right it is not a problem because it is only 30 feet away. When you arrive you will need to wash your hands and put on a face mask.

There are not set visitor hours, feel free to stop by anytime. You can call her room directly - 713-834-8724 or call my cell phone 970-333-4035 and I will let you know when would be a good time to see her.

Generally speaking during the day therapists and doctors are in and out of her room working with her so if you take a "shift" or visit during the day there will be lots of action. If you want to come in the evening there are typically not many interruptions.

Disclaimer - DO NOT SEND FLOWERS! At this point we have everything we need and I know people want to do something for Vicki and the family and when we think of things we need we will ask and appreciate the out-poor of support.
