Back in the hospital - AGAIN
Sorry to report, but Joe is very sick again. He got home on his birthday (Friday) and was feeling fairly good. Just went down hill from there. He still has bowel problems and by Saturday stayed in bed. He started vomiting and said his pain was a 10 out of 10. I called 911 and they rushed him to Chandler Regional. We found out he has a bowel obstruction. I understand this can be a side effect of the surgery that Joe had. The surgeon here is working with the surgeon in Tucson to determine next steps. They may transport him to Tucson for surgery, perform the surgery here or it may work itself out. We're in a wait and see mode. In the meantime, Joe is on pain meds, antibiotics (running 102 temp), IV's (dehydrated again) and oxygen (shallow breathing issues). Keep those prayers coming and I'll update as soon as they determine where we go from here.
With Love and Thanks,
Sherrie
