FRIDAY MORNING UPDATE -- APRIL 2ND

Good morning Friday-late last night there were more phone calls and consultations-so there is to be no more dialysis at this time-the real problem is his overall acidic state which has allowed this infection to reoccur around his stomach and wound area, and the fear is it could spread throughout his body, especially with mitral valves-that would not be good--SO they are transferring him today from this smaller hospital to TAMPA GENERAL which is big and has the capacity to scan and also treat-he will be in ICU there, and that is probably a better thing-time is of the essence--and this acidosous (spelling) has caused his heart to drop at times too -this is a REPEAT of what happened before and they are so correct it seems in diagnosing it and also taking moves-his Orlando drs. will be back this week-end and I hope to connect them with the team in Tampa for any other imput.
But that is where we are, and I LOVE the petunias and butterfly-it is amazing how the internet, when used so sweetly and wisely, can bring such specific cheer-thank you Sharon..
