Welcome to David’s CaringBridge Site
Sign In to Show Your SupportThe Fourth of July brought fireworks, and not the kind we’d like to see. Unfortunately, dads home health care team were not able to change a piece of medical equipment by the time it needed to be changed and the four days overage landed him in the emergency room and the ICU with a UTI and sepsis. He is now back in our home after almost a week in the hospital (Jen and Joel’s) but much of the progress he had made as far as therapy was impeded because of the incredible amounts of tone as a result of the sickness. It’s frustrating for dad; seems like one step forward three steps back.
Keep dad in your thoughts and prayers. He is so tired and hurting so bad it’s hard for the rest of the family to watch and not be able to do much. We now need a clearance from the ER so he can rejoin therapy as they will only hold his spot for two weeks. So, pray that we get the clearance to go,, the septic headaches go away, and that his muscles return to at least pre sepsis levels. He is such a good man - it’s really hard to watch him suffer. We could really use a win...😢
