UPDATE ON JOHN'S HEALTH

 GOOD MORNING!


John is home and 

Scruffy is back to sleeping with

one of his 'babies'.

He did not eat the whole time 

John was in the hospital.


I did a follow up post on Facebook

but then realized that not all bloggers

are part of the FB community--

so decided to do an update here.


John came home from the hospital

late Sunday.

They don't really have any answers yet

but he has 4 more appointments with 

specialists to see if they can get things

figured out.


They altered his meds a bit and we are hopeful

that will help with the dizziness

and low blood pressure.


I will keep you all posted as things progress.

Glad your husband is home and Scruffy is eating again.

Thanks for the update. I believe being home is better for someone than the hospital. I mean, there are times it’s necessary but you don’t get good sleep or rest. I am praying for answers and hope the change in medication is helpful. Poor Scruffy- he missed John and probably sensed your concern.
I’m glad you posted here on the blog as fb doesn’t always show us everything.
Hugs, Cecilia

Home is always better than a hospital, even if he's not quite figured out yet. Oh, that poor pup - not eating the whole time! I am hoping for the absolute best and some definite answers!! -Jenn

It's wonderful to hear this news. And I have confidence that at least one of these doctors will get to the bottom of everything.

Amazing how attuned our pets are to us. Poor Scruffy. I remember the times I've had surgery or have been very ill and bed-ridden, and my cats never left my side.

Love and prayers to you and John. (And Scruffy!)

Prayers that they can figure out some answers for John. Obviously Scruffy found the cure for what ailed him :)

Betty said...

Glad to hear He is home. I hope they do find out what is causing the problems. Glad you post here, I do not have facebook anymore. Saying prayers for you.

Donna said...

Happy to hear John is home! Sweet little Scruffy missed him. Will continue to pray that the medical folks figure out what is wrong and are able to help John. My brother who had vasculitis along with other problems had low blood pressure.

Diana, thanks for the update on John. I just said a prayer for him. That picture of Scruffy and his stuffed animal is so cute. Dogs need to be comforted too. Thinking of you.

I hope and pray he improves and feels stronger! Hugs to you both, Diane

Dear Diana, I hope you, hubby and Scruffy have a happy, restful together weekend x

I'm so glad he's home, Diana, and I hope the new tests reveal some results. But healing home is always better.

Dear Diana,
Hopeful that they will figure out what is causing John's dizzy spells and low blood pressure. Will most certainly include him in my prayers.
God bless you both! xx

And give that sweet dog a pat on the head from me.

Hi Di. It’s me,Sugar from At Rivercrest Cottage. Sorry to read John hasn’t been doing well. When Wild Bill was going through chemo and such, I wondered why they insisted on keeping him on 5 HBP meds. He was also falling and his BP was 83/

Just reading blogs today. I’m in Wisconsin now living in a house I bought on the Crystal River. It’s been almost 4 years since Wild Bill passed. Life does go on and is sweet once more. I’m engaged to a Wisconsin man and wouldn’t want to live anywhere but with him in Wisconsin.

I felt sure I'd commented here, but blogger does cause comment glitches from time to time ... perhaps I'm in spam folder!!?

Praying for you both, and sending my good wishes.

All the best Jan

Hey, I will be praying daily for him!! I have been so out of the loop, especially with blogging!
It's all so difficult and at times scary when we don't know what is going on! Keeping you both in my prayers!
Hugs, Roxy

So glad to read that John is home again. For some reason, I've stopped receiving notifications that you've published a new post, and I didn't think to check. Will be checking on a more regular basis!
