Lisa,
He was in St. Louis, but now he is in Cape Girardeu, MO at Landmark Hospital there. It is across from St. Frances Hospital, and the Doctors come there to see the patients. Landmark is very small, and is a 30 bed facility. He was sent there to be weined from the trach. Which he is..thank heavens, but is also having wound care there, since they had to open his wound from his surgery in November. I really like them, and Dave is comfortable there.
Thanks for your kind words…HUGS
Thank you so very much Darla for posting this. I update it often…we are still in the battlefield. Thanks for sharing this.
Hugs
Lainy,
I have been away from the board for a bit…dealing in my own nightmare with Dave back in the battlefield, but coming here today, and going back and reading this post, and those that followed, along with your poem, has just touched my heart. I want you to know that I think of you so very often, and you have no idea how inspiring you are to me, and so many others.
I have been told by many that I am a strong powerful lady, but my dear, you are an inspiration to us all! You have shown strength through it all.
I am sending you hugs and hugs and hugs!
Love you bunches.
Lainy,
Dave has back pain as well. I rub his back nightly as well. He tells me that he can’t get comfortable because of the weight loss, and being so boney. He is very thin, and I can count the bones in his back.
Thinking of you so much…HUGS your way!!!
Kris
Your strength amazes me. You are in my thoughts often, and I pray for you daily. Keep on keepin on.
Hugs to you!

Latest update:
They finally took him down for the dye procedure about 3:00. He called me about 4:30 to tell me that he was out and all went fine. They needed to make an adjustment to the drain tube, as it was not far enough into his small intestine. He says that the Doc in Radiology intervention tells him that all went well, and the problem is fixed. I believe that it was not draining properly, and this was the problem that was causing the bacteria in his blood.
They will once again attempt to cap the drain, so that it drains internally, and see how he does. I do not expect him to come home tomorrow, but I could be surprised. I am fairly certain that he will be home on Wednesday. (Doc Hawk promises me this) He was VERY hungry when I talked to him, and was looking forward to eating dinner!!
When I was little, we sang a song in Sunday school…went something like this:
“God is so good, God is so good, God is soooo good, he’s so good to me!” AMEN!!! HE CERTAINLY IS!!
Thanks so much Jen! Means so much!
Thank you Bob, you and Dave are very similar. Your posts are always so encouraging to me! I will keep you updated!
