Journal entry by Rebecca Wearmouth —
Richard has thoroughly enjoyed being home! He went to church last Sunday. Then we celebrated Christmas with family and friends. Of course, all that excitement wore him out, but gave him great joy!
Apparently, though, something is still out of balance in his body. Potassium is quite low and right heart pressures are quite high. He’s having other symptoms which we hope are just side effects of the meds. The heart failure team asked him to come back in to hospital today and admitted him. They will tweak the meds and run a few tests in an attempt to correct the imbalance.
So a great 10 days all in all. Please pray for healing and wisdom for the medical staff. Have a great weekend!
