    Herself is in the Hospital 2018 update

    Life threw us a curveball. Herself was not feeling well and we tried to fight it at home. Long story short, pneumonia is not a fair fighter. She was admitted on Wednesday evening . That night all hell broke loose and I was called into the hospital at 4am. Things settled down but it is not easy. I am not helpless in many situations but I really am at a loss here. All I can do is comfort her and try to get her to comply with the MDs.

    Please, keep her in your thoughts.

    Thank you.

    Kevin

    Pneumonia really is a treacherous and serious thing. I've had it twice, and it warn't no fun a'tall! It's more serious than just giving them antibiotics, and there are multiple kinds - viral and pneumocochal, I believe it is (?). Within those two divisions, there are many types, and of course the viral kind is always "evolving" and creating new strains. Good docs help a lot, and a good many people get it, so most docs know the routine, and what to look for. Each different type calls for different meds, and the trick is figuring out which one she has. Once that's done, it's a lot easier to treat and better dealt with.

    Prayers for both of you.

    Okay, back from the hospital for the night. Each day Herself has shown some improvement but today, she turned the corner. When I got there at 7:30am, she was awake, had color in her face and was talkative. Later, about 9:30, she told me to go home and take care of the dogs. I mentioned they get fed at noon and it is only a 20 minute drive. Let them out to run, they been cooped up a lot. Okay, now see is thinking more clearly. Her speech is better, she had lost her voice last week sometime, and easier to understand. I came back at 1pm and she asked for my phone to call our daughter, texted her actually. (Like I haven't been keeping the kid posted!) So, things are beginning to come around.

    Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.
