Its been a while since the last update so here's the scoop. Mike has been battling Gastroperisis, basically a lazy stomach. Digestive process was super slow. Its been difficult for him to get the nutrition he needs and has lost a lot of weight. With the new medicine he is slowly on the mend.He has relatively low blood pressure, difficulty catching his breath and is often on oxygen. Sleep is minimal at best and naps occur at random. We don't get out much these days but there are doctor appointments here and there.
Mike remains on hospice which is a huge blessing. His nurse comes over weekly to check vitals and ask about the latest symptoms. We were able to catch a huge dip in his potassium a few weeks ago and was able to get him on the mend thanks to his nurse being on top of it all.
We hope to be visiting family and friends in Minnesota over the summer at sometime. It all depends on Mike's health and ability to travel.
We are so grateful for thoughts and prayers from y'all. Please keep them coming. Congestive Heart Failure is a difficult road but we're fighting it with all we have. To God be the Glory for every blessing.
In Christ,
Penny
