Well you never know what will happen in this world each day........I usually don't share a lot of personal things on the blog but just wanted to give all who knows what has been going on the last couple weeks in our life....
Two weeks ago saturday my husband fell ill and we headed to the heart hospital to see what the problem was....... he was put on machines, iv and sent home.....started getting violently sick when we returned home and continiued the next day....our dr lives across the street and came over to check on him each day.....gave him meds and said keep his temp. etc in check and see how he does......no typical Covid symptons just sick.....this went on for a couple more days and finally took him back to the er on thursday and they gave him a covid test, and it was negative and said he had bacterial pneumonia and gave him powerful antibiotics, iv and sent us home......he didn't respond to the antibiotics and got sicker....still no temp, no breathing problems no covid symptoms just really sick and could not walk......finally sunday our son and daughter in law ( she is a PA) decided that he ( Adam) would come and help me out....he drove all night from Salt Lake City to get here and arrived around 9:00 that morning ..........as soon as he got here we immediately got Tom to the hospital because we knew he was in trouble........by the time we got him to the hospital he was in afib and really sick.....they took another Covid test and this one was positive.........when they came in the room to tell me he was positive I immediately had to leave..... I want to tell you that in life we have things that are hard to do but that was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. .... leave him there not knowing anything that was going on except for the nurses and drs. over the phone, phone calls......and being that the hospitals are the way they are now it was almost impossible to talk with a dr..... just the nurses.....he was in for a couple days and finally got to bring him home and care for him here!!!! I won't go into to much of everything but he is getting better everyday and stronger.......If Adam would not of been here I will tell you this I would not of made it......he was my lifesaver for sure.....So I just want you to know we got our Christmas Miracle and the best Christmas Present anyone could ask for....he is here today and making progress and improving ........don't take this virus lightly , wear your masks and stay away from big events and crowds, it's just not worth it. You can't be to careful and we all want to be able to celebrated the next day and holidays to come!!!!!
Hope it's a good week for you because we are celebrating each day with this wonderful man at home and will be able to celebrate his 72 birthday January 4, 2021.....I may even bake him a cake of his choice German Chocolate!!!
And to those who have been praying for him and the family you don't know how much it has touched us and the power of prayer is real........AMEN AND AMEN
