Thread: FIL in hosp again

On Wednesday at midnight gmt-5 my FIL was having a sugar crash. We couldn't wake him so we called the EMT's. I sat in the computer room browsing SRP while they did their work, eventually they took him into hospital because he wasn't waking even after IV treatment.

I've been here at the hospital since about 1:30 Thursday morning and have yet to get a nap. Thank God I found the internet connection last time we were here.

He was severely anemic, dehydrated from the third-spacing, and his diabetics pills kept causing his blood sugar to crash. The vascular surgeon is considering taking him into surgery and prepping his leg for a wound vac, which should help the complications from the previous surgery clear up.

All Prayers greatly appreciated.

Thanks all for your prayers.

They've got him set for surgery on monday provided his blood results show the results of the blood thinners have abated. They may have to give him vitamin K.

I've been having a bit of trouble connecting consistently this time around. I'm not sure what the deal is but I'll have to try to find a piece of connection software that will keep me connected with random browsing or something. It seems that regular email checks don't prevent the disconnect features built into the system here. Once it's disconnected it takes about 6 hours to reset so that a new connection can be made.

My prayers are with you.
