John was taken to Hershey

John was just taken to Hershey Medical Center by ambulance.  He hasn't felt well for about three days.  Today (Thursday) when the Critical Care nurse came over she noticed he had a fever, and also had redness around his chest port.  She had us call Hershey, who had us go to our local hospital.  While there, our local hospital found additional problems with John, and called Hershey Medical Center.  HMC decided that John should be admitted immediately, and asked that he be sent up by ambulance. 

So here I sit, at about half past midnight, alone.  I didn't go with him in the ambulance because I just couldn't arrange it.  For one thing, I didn't have all of my medications with me.  I take 18 of them, lol.  I need to order four of them tomorrow.  I didn't have them on hand today, and I didn't hurry to get them, because I had no idea this would happen.  Yes, I knew he was a little under the weather the past few days, but it never occurred to me he was this sick. I guess I thought he had a little cold or something, or was just really tired.

I'm really sad.  I wonder how he feels being alone.  It makes me sad he has to be that way.  I know I don't like being without him.  Especially when he is not feeling well.  Oh, well, there is nothing I can do about it tonight.  If they are going to keep him for awhile, I will see about going up and being with him.  

Good night.

  1. I'm so glad I'm online now when this alert poped up. First, sending hugs, I think tonight you could use them. Then, sending more prayers and I hope you are able to rest tonight knowing he is safe and well taken care of, and hopefully soon he is either home or has you there with him.

  31. I am sorry to read about John's illness after doing so well following the transplant.   Hopefully his diagnosis will be good and he will get past this.   It must be a shock to the both of you that he developed this problem.    I wanted to tell you that Salty has never even barked at a person let alone growl.   He wants attention from everyone he comes in contact with.    His growl though he sounds ferocious is theatrical.   He can really put on a show.     Hope your Easter goes OK and let John know that I am wishing him the best.     mark
