Hi Everyone,
While I didn't get in to see Myron today, ( I'm still awaiting results from his cultures to come back negative), Stephanie posted a brief up-date on the Carebridge page.
Myron was kept sedated last night and today because he became agitated. So much so that his blood pressure became elevated and he required a B/P medication to bring it down. This could have been associated with pain or a drug reaction to the versed. He is being weaned off the Versed and begun on Ativan. The wound vac was to be changed today and there was a possibility that it may be completely taken out.
He will have a feeding tube inserted into the stomach and possibly a tracheotomy done to replace the breathing tube.
He has continued to responded to people, but not today due to the sedation. This is a small set back, but I don't think it is anything to be greatly concerned about.
I'll keep you all posted.
Sue
Thanks for keeping us posted, Sue. Prayers continue.
I don't know how I ended up on your site, but wow it's so cool you have been blogging for so long, with such a following. My mom bought a computer and left it in her front hall for a month, she was afraid to take it out of the box.
ReplyDeleteKeep the faith, grandmere.

Valerie, welcome. Computers scared me at first, too, but I was still working, and I had no choice but to learn to use them. Even when I bought my first home computer, I was frightened of it, because I had no one to help me if I got in trouble.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting.
Continued prayers for Myron and the family.
