virgil in hospital
by: donna
Hi All, Virg was admitted at Unity Hospital last Sunday, Oct. 29 with congestive heart failure. He had been diagnosed earlier that week by his ortho surgeon who placed his artificial hip in 2002 with a badly strained back with pain radiating down the right artificial hip and on to his foot. He has now developed a serious bladder infection. Today when they attempted to place a new IV they made 5 unsuccessful tries including the 2 thumbs and 2 feet which caused intense pain. They then gave his antibiotic by shot and his Lasix by mouth and will check his white count tomorrow. If the infection is not better by tomorrow they may attempt a central line which is dangerous with the blood thinners he is on for his stents from the heart attack in June.
Please pray for him and continue praying for Ron who also needs our prayers. It is great to have family who cares and prays.
Donna
