july 25,2008

Today is + 11, Our morning started at 2 a.m. Russ couldn't sleep he couldn't have food or water incase they were doing his cardovert in the morning, so no breakfast and no word from the heart Dr. then at 11a.m. word came that his heart was back in rythum and that was good news. He needed more plasma cell today and his temp. started to go up around 1p.m. as of now it's abour 101, so more blood is taken for lab work is make sure it's not an infection. HE hasn't felt very good all day,and has slept most of the afternoon. Please send prayers our way, thanks for all your blogs. Love Carol and Russ

Well onthe positive side your heart is in time. As far as no food and or water I think it's standard procedure in those places to see how long they can starve you. Not much happening here, I just went and paid my dues again today not a bite. Well I hope you get a liitle better rest tonight thats as important as the food. We'll check in tommorrow. Randal

We are keeping you in our prayers constantly. You are both so strong, you can get through this. It hot outside, if you haven't been out lately. Even the cold hospital has to feel better than being outside.
We are putting in railroad ties along our south fenceline, think we'll will get up earlier tomorrow to beat the heat.
Love you, Tom and Bess

I hope he can sleep better tonight or last night by the time you will read this.
Maybe with a little luck they have the heart thing in check. It will be day 12 tomorrow and by the way they count thing should start to improve, I sure hope so.
Is the temp. to do with the white count starting to come back. Your last message did not indicate there was an infection.
Alayna is to be at the hospital at 6:30 AM Monday, not sure what time the surgery is. We are still planning on coming up. I will probably call you Sunday and check with you.
