Thank you everyone for your well wishes, thoughts and prayers. Mater of factly, they have really helped.
He's the best the nurses, and surgeons have seen in the last couple days. He's still on a vent & crucial that he is weaned off of it (which they will try late Sunday or early Monday). The vent was reduced today at 45 & at 100% oxygen & have him on meds to keep his heart rate low & hasn't been in AFIB since last Sunday. He became an unruly patient by pulling his trach out twice early last week, resulting in being restrained. Restraints extended a bit so he can have movement but not to the neck/face. Thanks so very much to the AA family -- gracious to all of you. My sister has extended her stay until Sunday allowing me to take care of business with the other side of the family -- single & broke B-I-L had a stroke in February and looks like he'll be released from rehab mid-October. All the paperwork to get him on State Medicaid definitely was a plus -- got tired of writing $9K a month checks to cover his private pay after BCBS obligations ran out. Didn't quality for Medicare (didn't pay 7 of last 10 years of SS taxes to cover). Now trying to get his home ready for his return. New HVAC (heat broke & didn't have AC; well water ugly; filtration installed Saturday, lift chair) & oh well, quite a bit. Best Sirs & again very thankful to everyone -- I also want to send my condolences to those who have lost a parent/son/daughter/relative - death -- it's all too painful & nasty on the surviving; but, march on we must. Bob

Everybody ready for the show this weekend? Looking forward to it, nice relaxing weekend away from the usual schedule. Can't wait to check out some of the new products out there although I will have to take a break on Saturday to catch the Georgia game. Anyone have final total of AA members attending for the show and dinner on Saturday?

I'm supposed to know this...but not entirely sure. Me, you, w9tr (tom), Richard George, and sl1800 (Steve) for sure. Blueoak (Doug) and for the love of music (ed) are possible. I was going to start sending pm's tomorrow to confirm. |

After mixing up the schedule last week, I am now in tune, and able to attend the show and dinner, I look forward to meeting everyone and learning lots!
If anything needs to be done with reservations or other, reach out and I will help get things squared away for a good time! |
