TUESDAY MORNING October 16
Jeff held stable last night. He has surgery scheduled for 12:30 to change the vac dressing and clean the area. His blood pressure is holding and his heart is staying in a sinus rhythm (with the help of medications) He is very tired. His stomach is completely ulcerated on the inside. His acid reflux and GERD was so bad that it destroyed his stomach. He had been two different doctors in the month before this happened and told him he was having acid problems and they told him that it was all in his head.
Pray for strength for him. Pray that his body begins to heal.
To the person that told me to send him to the Cleveland Clinic. (1) he is not strong enough to make the trip. (2) he went to the Cleveland Clinic a few years ago for his acid symptoms and they would not treat him. (3) I feel that he is getting the best possible care here at Lutheran Hospital. I appreciate your concerns and your prayers but he would not be able to make a trip. When someone is as sick as he his the last place you want them is in an emergency vehicle.
