Teddy da Bear 11 #26 Posted February 15, 2009 Again thank you all so much! And Bustedglass.... So sorry your having problems with that storm. And said a prayer for your Mom.... Kathy looked better today.....I walked with her during her 6 laps around the 12th floor! Maybe that unit of blood got her revitalized...... Still her system is not responding. I feel helpless there.

Teddy da Bear 11 #34 Posted February 18, 2009 Thanks for being here for me and my Kathy.... Sometimes I think she is getting better and then on some things not so good.... Today is day 17 in the hospital..... Blood pressure is still going up and down like a yoyo. She is trying to take in liquid foods... She is off intervenious feeding. But she cannot eat only a couple of bites and get horribly nauseous. I am worried she is going to rip her internal stitches. I am also concerned that the doctor seems antsy to get her out of the hospital before she is ready. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greg Parnell 6 #41 Posted February 19, 2009 Hey TDB, I've been reading this post to stay updated on your wife, my prayers are with you all. I hope her "system" starts working soon too. Proverbs 17:22 reads "A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones" Keep a loving, cheerful, encouraging heart and spirit for your wife, it's gooood medicine said our Lord.

Teddy da Bear 11 #49 Posted February 20, 2009 Again we can't thank you all that remembered us with your prayers, thoughts and encoragement. Kathy is doing fair here on Friday..... She is not able to eat much and this concerns me greatly. She is 90 pounds and I was told by the nurse that if she reaches 85.....call the doctor... Before you are worried about her current weight....' I must tell you she is only 4'-10" tall. So 93lbs is her ideal weight. But someone so small cannot afford to lose too much. My Goodness....my weight can fluctuate 5lbs. on a single meal! On a side note....my dogs....not having seen my wife for 20 some days (must have thought she left me). Freaked out and ran around for joy...... Later that night when I was petting our greyhound, Payday....I found she had torn open her haunch on something. So at 9pm last night I was at the emergency animal clinic getting her stitched up. It was such a good day....until then.... She will be ok I'm sure. She has done this twice before.

stevasaurus 23,493 #50 Posted February 20, 2009 I am glad you got her home...it's not good to stay in the hospital longer then necessary...better care at home and comfortable. :banana: :banana: and now the dog ...ya know, when you are playing poker and it seems like one bad hand after another...I get up and walk around the chair and sit back down. Works every time. Still my prayers. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
