Hospital News

Grandma back in the hospital, she is having problems breathing. the doctors haven't found the problem, however they believe it may have something to do with her heart. They have concluded a little water around the heart, but nothing in her lungs....yeah! She has been in the IHC Towers for 6 days now, and they have been doing many tests on her. Today they checked her kidney, liver, gallbladder, and an X-ray on her heart and lungs. Gallbladder concluded that grandma has gallstones, this can be some of the pain and dis-comfort she has been experiencing. She received a beautiful bouquet of flowers from the Moulton's, grandma was so excited and elated to get something that beautiful. Thank You! Everyone keep her in your prayers.

Hospital/Home News

Grandma Judy went home on Thursday, October 23, 2008. Yeah! She is feeling much better, however she will need to have surgery on her throat. The medical term is Divertikulum-zenkerts. (which means extreme acid reflux) The physicians believe that she inhaled something into her lungs, which allowed bacteria to build up and cause the double pneumonia. So once we get the surgery taken care of, they think she will be fine. Grandpa is thinking up some very interesting meals. Grandma cannot eat anything, unless it has been blended as well as baby food, so he is up on all suggestions. YUM, YUM. Her surgery is on Friday, November 7, 2008, they had to move it back a bit, because of blood thinners.

Hospital News (Day 6)

Grandma seemed to feel a little better today. Her IV came out, so they had to have 3 different nurses try for a vein, finally after 5 pokes they got a line. Her throat specialist said that she would need surgery, however, they must get her better first. It is an in-and-out surgery, but it is mandatory that she has this procedure done. Oxygen levels are much better and they are keeping close eye on her sugar levels and blood levels. She is a little low on iron. Grandma has a spell of gout in her feet so it is very painful to stand or walk, boy if it's not one thing it's the next. She is still positive and always tells the nurses that she is just fine.
Keep watching grandpa and make sure he is getting enough sleep and fed well. Rich and I are going out of town, but we will keep everyone updated.
