Journal entry by Carol Van Tuyl

Hi Everyone,

I am setting up this website for Paul to keep you informed of his current medical condition.  

Saturday 11/6/2021, Paul had a stroke that caused bleeding on the brain.  He was taken to Methodist Hospital Stone Oak in San Antonio and is still in the hospital. For 4 days he was doing well with recovery. He had a set back on the night of 11/10/2021, when a mucus plug caused him to stop breathing and his heart stopped. Fortunately, they were able to do multiple things, including CPR, to revive him. 

I know that he is fighting and struggling to get back to where he was before the setback. The family and I are taking turns being by his bedside and meeting with the doctors and nurses daily. I am so grateful for the care he is getting and love from our kids.  

Please keep him in your prayers as he continues his recovery. 

Blessings and love,
Carol
